Many cat owners wonder about this. If my cat is strictly an indoor cat, why should we take him to the vet every year? Regular checkups are an opportunity to check the overall wellbeing of your cat. Potential problems could be detected and be picked up early.
A kitten should complete the regular vaccination schedule. This includes a series of shots and booster shots that last around 12 months (it involves 2/3 visits to the vet). Please talk to your vet about mandatory shots and decide which shots should your kitten receive. New York State Law requires mandatory rabies shots. More details about vaccinations can be found here:
