Ok so my kitten got her first shot at 8 weeks old and i couldnt go back until she was 14 weeks for her 2nd shot (that was just last friday 5 days ago). I was wondering if she NEEDS the 3rd one? I was reading on a mobile pet website in my city that they only need 2 which is at 6 weeks and the second one 3-4 weeks after. I always thought they needed 3. She is an indoor kitten (if it makes any difference). Should I get her the 3rd one no?

Kittens typically get the FVRCP vaccine 3 times at 8,12, and16 weeks. Check with your vet when you have the next booster. If you wait too long after the first one you might have to start all over..

Actually my vet and breeder suggest getting the series twice and then a rabbies vaccine at 16 weeks. Take a look at the vaccine section on catinfo.org it has all the information you need to know on the different types of vaccines.
