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 was told that she had 
shed the virus and that is why she tested negative.    She is now 8 years old.

So I put off getting the IFA test as I wanted to see how she did and I felt 
that she probably was infected.  I finally took her in to get the test and it 
came back negative.  So I know that the virus is not in her bone marrow.  But 
what does this mean?  The vet said to bring her back in 6 months for a snap 
test to see if she has shed the virus, but is this really possible?
