A theoretical causal relationship between rabies vaccination and fibrosarcomas was first recognised in the USA in 1991, with successive studies linking increased usage of rabies and feline leukaemia virus (FeLV) vaccines and the development of these tumours. Tumors are caused by vaccines (feline leukemia virus and rabies vaccines), microchips, injections of long-acting antibiotics, long-acting glucocorticoids, lufenuron, and reaction to nonabsorbable suture.

A total of 17 cutaneous lymphomas with a history of vaccine injection at the site of tumor development were selected from 47 FPCLs. Surgery is the mainstay of treatment for injection-site sarcoma. Many cats tolerate the injections well when given about one to two inches from the middle of the back, near the shoulder blade or hip bone. Repeated injections into the same site can change the nature of the healthy layer of fat tissue under your skin so that insulin is not properly absorbed.
