I am looking into ordering vaccines from drsfostersmith.com for the huge number of strays I take in. It has been recommended to me and I have given vaccinations before. I only vaccinate one time though with adult cat shots and thats it. I don't revaccinate every year or three years or whatever it is. And it is really inexpensive if you buy in bulk amounts.

But rabies I didn't know

Oh Jen, glad you said something! I didn't know that Strongid didn't cover tapeworms. Glad you said something. I'm not sure about Drontal- i've never dosed a kitty with that before so i don't know about it. I'm sure a vet could explaine the difference in the broad spectrum deworms. Thanks for catching that
