I was just discussing this with my vet last week when I took Scout in because she gets so sore and sick after vaccinations. She told me that even though they still recommend the FVRCP shot every year many new studies show that one shot will last for up to three years. She said she isn't telling me to only vaccinate them every three years (because yearly is what is still recommended) but that it was information for me to consider. Then she said she has 4 indoor only cats and she only gives them that shot every other year and will probably go to every three years now. You can bet that is what I'm going to start doing. I love this vet and she is the "cat" expert around here.

She did add that if her cats went outside or if they were exposed to other cats she would probably stick to the yearly vaccination.
