Because rabies is a significant health hazard, it is extremely important to vaccinate your pet. In many states and cities, rabies vaccine is required by law.
Clinical signs may include:

Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis (herpesvirus) - Contagious Respiratory Disease
Herpes is a very common cause of upper respiratory disease in cats. Even if successfully treated, Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis can lead to lifelong infection.
Clinical signs may include:

FELINE LEUKEMIA (FeLV) - Immunosuppressive Disease
This viral disease attacks the immune system and leaves the cat vulnerable to a host of secondary infections. There is no known relationship between FeLV and leukemia as it occurs in humans. Because the transmission usually occurs through contact with other felines, those cats that live with FeLV-infected cats or are allowed to roam outdoors are particularly at risk.
Most FeLV-infected cats have no clinical signs until another infection occurs, but typically experience:
