I haven't heard of the SNAP test being any more inclined toward false
positives on young kittens when testing for feluk. I have heard that if you
are testing young kittens for FIV there is a good chance of a false positive
from antibodies in their mother's milk if she was positive. This usually
clears away by 4 to 6 months so, testing kittens for FIV before that doesn't
give a true indication.

I'm sorry, I should have given a cite for this. My vet says testing
cats of less than 3 months is not recommended. I can't find anything
on the Internet to cooberate. Anyone hear of this before?
