My vet keeps sending me postcards wanting me to bring in my cat to get her yearly exam and shots. Is this really necessary? When I was a kid, we never brought our cats to the vet. We live in an apartment, so my cat never goes outside or is exposed to other animals. So I don't see a purpose for these vaccines. She was just at the vet 2 months ago for an eye infection, so they know she is in good health. Is it really that necessary that I bring her?

Whether your cat goes outside or not, its best to keep it in check with its yearly vaccines. If you go without the vaccines for years, and then your cat gets sick, when you take it to the vet, they usually go ahead and give it the shots, which their bodys can't tolerate. My cat died from this, and this is why we take my other cat in yearly now. Even if it doesnt seem worth it now, it will be in the long run - as a precaution.
