My new cats had shots at 16 weeks. What vaccines do they need now?

I have two cats that received their panleukopenia, rhinotracheitis, and calcivirus vaccinations at 16 weeks with their previous owner and had their normal physicals and fecal/deworming but now I just got them and they're about 25 weeks now and I'm not quite sure if they need more shots or what shots they should've already gotten?

Hello. If this was their only vaccination on record, then I would play it safe & booster the same viruses now & again in 1 month. If they have not had a rabies vaccine, do this now, too. Please consider vaccinating them against feline leukemia as this is a very important virus to protect against. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
