I have a male cat aged a year-and-a-half that received partial vaccination as a kitten. Since then he has not had any vaccinations, what vaccinations are recommended at this point given what he has received already and how old he is?

A lot of this depends on his lifestyle and exposures. Rabies he needs to get as required by law. That is a human health concern as well as for his protection. Even indoor only cats can be exposed to rabies via bats or wildlife that get into attics etc. the association of feline practitioners recommends kittens initially recieve vaccinations for feline leukemia and the feline panleukopenia combo. After that vaccines are based on lifestyle and exposure. Annual exams are recommended regardless of if vaccinations are due or not. Some vaccines may be annual and some on a three year rotation. Your vet can discuss Mr Knightley's exposure and risks with you to formulate the best prevention plan for him.
