does my adult cat need shots?

Answer 1

yes ask your vet what shots your cat will need!

Answer 2

Yes. In most of America and in the civilized world, cats are required to be vaccinated against rabies. There are 3 0r 4 other fatal cat diseases you can protect your cat from with a combined shot. Call a vet and schedule a exam and shot visit for the cat. Doing this once a year is really required.
Where I live if a cat is not vaccinated against rabies, you can be fined. $50.00. Worse things are in store for you if the cat bites or scratches somebody.

Answer 3

It really depends on your cats specific risk factors.
Generally, adult cats should receive a rabies and a FVRCP vaccines every 3 years. There is no reason to vaccinate for these more often than every 3 years, but some local laws require rabies each year.
