missed some core logic. It could have been something completely different what made him cry the first time. Maybe the shock of being pricked.
A year and a half later he got just the DT without the Pertussis part and was fine. (I add this info to demonstrate that he does have a sensitivity to vaccines)

Gothmog might be right...maybe you should distance the cat from the baby while it's so young...
I heard some people have alergic reaction to cats...

Herpes zoster
Herpes zoster (shingles) most often occurs in the elderly and is only rarely seen in children. The incidence of herpes zoster in vaccinated adults is 0.9/1000 person-years, and is 0.33/1000 person-years in vaccinated children; this is lower than the overall incidence of 3.2–4.2/1000 person-years.[26][27]
Adult shingles cases may increase after introduction of varicella vaccine, but evidence is unclear.[13][27][28][29] While research using computer models has tended to support the hypothesis that vaccination programs would increase incidence of zoster in the short term, the evidence from epidemiological studies is mixed,[30][31] and increases observed in zoster incidence in some studies may not be related to vaccination programs, as the incidence increases prior to the varicella vaccine program being initiated.[32]
Regarding herpes zoster, the US Centers for Disease Control states: "Chickenpox vaccines contain weakened live VZV, which may cause latent (dormant) infection. The vaccine-strain VZV can reactivate later in life and cause shingles. However, the risk of getting shingles from vaccine-strain VZV after chickenpox vaccination is much lower than getting shingles after natural infection with wild-type VZV."[33]

Risk of vaccine-associated zoster — Immunocompromised patients who receive the varicella vaccine are at risk for developing severe and/or disseminated herpes zoster infection with the vaccine strain of the virus [65,73]. In such patients, zoster can develop months after vaccination. Wild-type VZV also has been identified in persons with herpes zoster after immunization, indicating that herpes zoster in immunized persons also may result from antecedent natural varicella infection [74]. The impact of varicella vaccination on the incidence of herpes zoster is discussed separately. (See "Epidemiology and pathogenesis of varicella-zoster virus infection: Herpes zoster", section on 'Impact of varicella vaccine on incidence of herpes zoster'.)

LOL! The dogs chase the cats out of the house, that was a one time photo op.
He has no allergies to anything that I know of. He eats peanut butter, strawberries, eggs, milk...no problem. No allergies to pollen or animals.
And the rash isn't like a flat, hives/allergy rash. It's little, raised, red bumps...almost like pimples but there's not actual blisters. The aggravating factors: first time-MMR second time-stomach flu third time-ear infection
