I give my cats their basic PCRC shots and rabies shots every three years but I just started giving my FelV negative cats the FelV shots. I'd like an opinion from all of you as to whether a booster is necessary once a year for the FelV shot. I have no FelV cats at home that I know of. All 14

Sharyl, I am so, so sorry to hear this happened to your kitties; it's incredibly angering that PETA not only undermined your plans to give them a happy, healthy existence, but also absconded with your money. Like others on this list, I'm pretty sure they tested before performing the surgery, and

Hi Natasha, Are all your other cats up to date on feline leukemia vaccinations? You should NOT get FIV vaccination for your cats. It isn't that effective and they will then test positive for FIV, even if they don't have it. I am really hoping Stump only has FIV because that is a lot easier
