The intranasals are very effective and work quickly. The shelter I used to work with sometimes gave them to kittens. The vet did say, however, that there was more risk of URI with them and since the vaccine was live, they could "sneeze" it onto other cats. I don't know how true that is. My vet had started to use the FeLV "gun", which is supposed to have fewer side effects. One of my cats did get extremely lethargic after being vaccinated, but she also had the FVRCP with it. When she was re-vaccinated at the shelter with regular vaccines, she didin't have a reaction. I do thinks the "gun" is better, but I would not give 2 vaccines at the same time any more. Beth

Then there are non-adjuvanted rabies and FELV vaccines, which are less apt to cause sarcoma, even though they are injected (well, the FELV vaccine is actually "jetted" without a needle through the skin).
