"... they told me that the one year had fewer additives and the 3 year actually carried more risk of injection site sarcoma because it had more additives in it to make it effective for 3 years. Therefore they do not give the 3 year there."
Vaccines, including Rabies, vary in ingredients by manufacturer, product, and even batch. It could be that this vet uses ONE brand for their 1 year rabies, and a DIFFERENT BRAND for their 3 year rabies. This could easily explain the differences. Always look for NON-Adjuvanted vaccines, that's the key. The adjuvants in most vaccines are the ingredients thought to most often cause reactions and sarcomas. I have quite a bit of info on the vaccine issue on my webpage http://ucat.us/domesticcatlinks.html (it's near the bottom of the page) Personally, I don't vaccinate at all any more.
