    I agree with everyone here. I do vaccinate my cats for rabies because it's the law. But I definitely do not believe in over-vaccinating. Especially since all my cats are indoor cats.

    When I took Eli in for his neutering, they wouldn't even admit him unless I had him vaccinated for Feline Leukemia. He had all his kitten series and I was a little pissed that they required the FeLv shot. But then they tried to sell me on Feline Aids vaccination (even after I told them my cats are all indoors). They told me that all that has to happen is a stray cat coming to my screen door on a nice spring day, hissing at my cat (since it's spread by bodily fluids). I told her I lived in an apartment on the SECOND floor (DUH!!!) and doubted that was going to happen. She was quite embarassed. Needless to say, he was vaccinated only for FeLv.
