That was another thing she was seeing lots of--injection site
sarcomas. Because of it, she was in favor of minimizing the number of
injections (no FeLV vaccine for indoor cats that had no contact with
indoor/outdoor cats, combining vaccines wherever possible [something
that's controversial itself]) and varying the site of injection as
much as possible, so that the same spot didn't get it all the time.

Ironically, that is the reverse of what the protocol seems to call for
(although I see the logic in what she said). Vets have been told to use
specific locations (although probably not exactly the exact spot) for
specific injections to help in determining which types of vaccines were
causing the sarcomas.
