Cats can have diseases for the same reason any other animal does. Often it is a result of bacterial or viral infection, but some are simply genetic.
If you are seeking to keep your cat disease-free, the best options are to:
- Keep the cat indoors. It is less likely to be exposed to infected insects, fecal matter and other cats.
- Groom the cat regularly, taking care to check for any discolored skin, lesions or parasites.
- Ensure the cat has a proper diet. Too many unhealthy foods can lead to digestive problems.
- Always get regular checkups with the vet, at least once per year!

Can vaccinated healthy indoor cats get diseases from outside cats?
Yes, they can get diseases from the diseases they haven't been vaccinated yet for, and they can also get a disease they've already been vaccinated for if they were due for another vaccination at the time they were infected. Even if they're healthy indoor cats they can still get diseases from outdoor cats but they might be less likely to get infected with a disease if they have a healthy body.

Does your cat need its jabs if it doesn't go outdoors?
Yes, of course! It is highly recommended that cats get their annual vaccinations in order to boost its immune system from several diseases. It also stops kittens and cats spreading contagious diseases to other cats. Some of these diseases can even be carried around on human clothes and shoes, so just because an unvaccinated cat lives indoors doesn't mean it cannot spread disease to other cats, or catch them from an outside source.
