thank you, Wendy for the reply.  My confusion is over 
when to do the IFA.  Wouldm you believe that one of
the vets i use (the better one)  does not even have it
listed in her price list?  She is pretty positive
about FeLV in general though, and will NOT put down a
healthy FeLV cat.

I just want this to work out so badly because we are
moving in April, and I must know by then.  I pray he
is one of the lucky ones.  I already have 3 FIV cats
in the general population with no problems.

Geez, you get to love em' sooo much!!!
