Well, if you had mice and they are disappearing, then the cat is probably catching them, and the cat may also leave the mice as presents for you somewhere noticeable. And remember, if the cat does do this, you should praise them and thank them, not scold them, because they did catch the mice, which is their instinct as well, and they offered it to you because they love you and want to share it with you. Of course don't eat the mouse; I always bury the ones our cat brings us.

Does cat need a vaccine after catching a mouse?
Once a cat has caught and eaten a mouse, if the cat is going to catch anything from the mouse, it is a bit too late for vaccination... vaccination is to prevent disease, and by the time you have the cat to the vet for the booster shot, if it is infected, the infection is already past the point at which vaccination will help. If you expect that your cat will be catching mice, vaccination with periodic boosters is a good idea, as mice do carry diseases that cats can catch.

If your cat brings in mice does this mean you have an infestation of mice?
No, you probably do not have an infestation of mice. Your cat has probably decided to use his/her natural instincts, and bring you a mouse (a cat thinks that catching something and then presenting it to you is a gift) from somewhere near where you live. It could be from a neighbours property, or from a park or nature reserve somewhere near where your cat lives. There is, although a slight possibility that you do have a mouse infestation, though it doesn't seem very likely if you have not seen any mice or heard any around your home.
