Kim,
The Feline Leukemia vaccine cannot give cats leukemia and it does not give
them a false positive. It doesn't affect the test at all. Some cats can test
false positive so I would think about retesting or getting a IFA Hardy test
that tells if it is in the bone marrow yet or not. Also how old is the kitten?
Young animals usually under a year can sometimes shed the virus and become
negative later in life.
I hope this helps, good luck.

Hello,
I have a foster cat who tested positive to the Elisa test
AFTER she was
vaccinated. Do previously vaccinating a cat create a false
positive when
tested after the vac.s?
When I got her she had all of her shots but was never
tested for FeLV until
I did it.
Thanks!
Kim
