Feline injection site Fibrosarcoma is a type of terminal cancer related to inflammation caused by rabies and leukemia vaccines.(12) Mean disease free interval time or survival time with surgical removal is about 3 months. Vaccines with adjuvant, an ingredient included to stimulate the immune system, have been implicated as a higher risk, although other injectable drugs have been incriminated as well. Adjuvanted vaccines have been demonstrated to induce mutation in cell cultures. Adjuvanted Rabies, Distemper and Feline Leukemia vaccines have been classified as Class II carcinogens by the World Health Organization. To minimize the risk of injection site fibrosarcomas, we now recommend all non-adjuvanted vaccines for cats.A series of vaccinations is recommended starting at 8 weeks and given 3 - 4 weeks apart up to 16 weeks of age. Another MLV vaccination given sometime after 6 months of age (usually at 1 year & 4 months) will provide lifetime immunity (15, 20, 21, 23).
