Rabies vaccination is required by North Carolina and South Carolina law for all cats, dogs and ferrets over four months of age. Even if the city or county you live in doesn’t require your pet to be registered, rabies vaccination is still required. Read on to learn about free and low-cost rabies vaccinations.
Rabies vaccinations are good for one or three years.
