I suspect you need another vet who is more into cat issues. Sometimes
it is nice to have more than one vet---different takes, different
experiences.

Congratulations on Amber's recovery and well-being!
When I was in this situation with my mom's cat, Lucky, I waited
until the
IFA was done, just for peace of mind. I think it took about a week
for them
to get the result.

Subject: [Felvtalk] Your Opinion would be GREATLY appreciated
Hello to all,
Three months ago I rescued a cat that I found out in the field next
to our
house starving to death and did not energy to even purr or play. She
tested
positive for felv. Three months later this kitty who I named Amber
is like a
different cat. She is rotten, well fed, and full of energy. As some
of you
my recall, my husband built her her own palace to live in which is
in our
basement. I have three healthy cats upstaris and am not willinig to
risk
exposing them to a felv cat.
I took Amber back to the vet this morning and the Elisa test was
negative! I
asked the vet about getting her the IFA test and he did not even
know what
it was! I had printed off information re the test and he did read it.
However, he thinks she does not need the IFA test since she tested
negative.
Should I go ahead and bring Amber upstaris with the rest of the gang
or still insist on the IFA test??
Jannes
