    RIP Tiger! How sudden...but I know he was comforted having you with him.

    Play free at the Bridge, dearest Tiger.

    Since my cats are totally indoor cats, after their kitten shots, they have not been vacinated. Way too scary. I am so sorry for your loss. Take comfort in the fact that he knew you were there at the end.
    Proud to be a crazy cat lady!

    I'm so sorry to hear about Tiger's passing. Now he's pain free and playing up at Raindbow Bridge with all of the other kitties. RIP sweet boy. Please take care. (((HUGS)))

    All of my cats are also indoor only and I used to get them vaccinated yearly for FVRCP and Rabies but now I've stopped. My current vet actually recommended it and she's fine with it. She also said that in cats 10 years old and older that you should stop all vaccinations. Kitten and puppy shots are needed though and then one more adult vaccination with the rabies and then that's all for indoor cats.

    I am so sorry to read about your boy. Like a few of the others, I only get the rabies, and when they are 10ish, I no longer give rabies. Thank heavens I have a vet that I can work with and understands how I feel. Sleep softly, dear Tiger..

    I was so sorry to read the intial post, and hesitated to reply as my only experience with fibrosarcoma was god awful. Both my Tenny and my mom's Nevvie passed from this. Nevvie so recently that it burns to talk about it still. Nevvies was definetly vaccine induced, and despite doing everything for him, surgeries, radiation, chemo, he passed away. I no longer get the vaccines on my indoor only cats. I have them tested, and the initial rabies vac- but that is it.

    I am so sorry that Tiger is gone. RIP, sweet fellow.
