My cat is 10 years old and has tested positive for FELV in the ELISA test but
the IFA test was negative. So she has virus but it seems to be dormant. I
noticed that she has blood on her anus and it was inflamed. So I took her to
the vet and they did a biopsy of her anus as it was inflamed.
Marilyn,
I am so sorry for your loss. I know how difficult it must be.
I am curious though about what type of Felv test you had done. There is the
Elisa test which is usually done in house and the IFA test which is done via a
blood test at a lab and is supposed to be more accurate. I have
he IFA test is 99.9% accurate.

My cat tested positive for Felv a few months ago from an Elisa test. I had her
tested after she had persistent yeast ear infections and I had read that immune
suppressed cats were prone to yeast infections. In addition, when she was a
kitten she tested positive but then tested negative. I

My 7.5 Y/O cat tested positive (ELISA) for Felv about a month ago. She had
yeast ear infections that would not go away and had lost weight so I had her
tested to see if there was a problem with her immune system and blood workup.
When my vet told me that she tested positive of FELV, she said
My cat who is 7.5 years old has had on and off yeast ear infections for the
past 2 years. After the last infection that did not respond to treatment, I
asked the vet to see if she had any immune deficiency issues as I had read that
yeast was opportunistic where cats have a suppressed immune
