I try to give them the shot early on - distemper and maybe it covers a few other things.
After that they have the run of the place, get some food esp over winter and a warmer barn to winter in, and are free to make it on their own. I don't like to get deep into medicating or treating them for chronic stuff. Doesn't seem fair to them or me, really.....
Exceptions, of course. We had a 1 year old male come dragging his tail home on a cord, beautiful big healthy cat, that woulda infected and killed him in a bad way. We chased down the medical path, and by the time we were done was over $400 to clean up his stub and get him proper shots for them to work on him, etc.
Over the next decade he took on the ditch route, and cleaned up the gopher (ground squirrels) along my field, saving me 600 feet of 2-3 rows of corn they always destroyed. So. He earned me back more than the $400... He disappeared a year ago, and I already saw a little damage show up on that field..... Hope to get another of the cats interested in that route. It's good hunting.
Me, I'd consider him being a cat and have a good life with what he has, and let him be. Happy without the medication. Won't fault anyone for choosing a different route with you cat. Always tough when they go, for whatever the reason.

Potatoes were grown for sale and oats were grown to be used for cattle and horse feeding. Up to about 1958 the dairy cows were fed hay with some turnips and after that grass silage was the main winter feed. That same year was the last in which flax was grown on the farm. Flax provided the fibre which w
