Hoping to presume on Bob's expertise one more time!
Are there any [booster or first-time] immunizations that you would avoid in a cancer-patient senior-kitty? Since we decided against radiation to Shadow's little head or chemo for the CA in favor of intensive "kitty hospice", and particularly since January (when the "you are due for" postcards started coming), I've avoided taking him to the vet knowing that the first thing she would want to do is give him shots and he was so compromised already (and at little risk for rabies et al).
Not that he had anything other than the CA that needed treatment that I ignored!
But now that he seems to be in a rebound, and needs that flea treatment, I thought I'd take him in and let her have a look-see. Like George, I'd just as soon buy my flea-meds from my vet -- she is a SAINT and very nice as well. And of course, I will ASK HER about the shots in light of the cat's condition, just like to have a second opinion, too.

Shots to avoid in a immuno-compromised cat?
