Thank you for contact Pet Coach with your question about Coffee! She should go to the vet at least once a year for a health check, and each time she is sick. As for vaccines, feline core vaccines include FVRCP (feline distemper combo) and a Rabies vaccine. If she is an outdoor cat, the FeLV vaccine (feline leukemia) should be considered. I hope this helps!
