Again it really depends on the kitten. I've rescued 10 FeLV kittens. All had
their rabies shot and initial series of FVRCP shots. All were asymptomatic at
the time. None got sick from the vaccines. I eventually lost all of them to
FeLV. They lived from 1 yr to 4 yrs. It is a decision each individual has to
make. Mine got their rabies vax because it is required by law. They got the
FVRCP series of 2 shots because I did not want to risk them getting distemper.
There is no one rule that applies to all cats except to love them and give them
the best food and care you can. It broke my heart to lose my FeLV babies but
they brought me so much joy. I only hope I was able to give them 1/2 of what
they gave me.
Hugs to yours
Sharyl
