Hi all, I'm new to the group. I do Cat rescue for a Northern Virginia group and took in 3 Persian Mix bottle babies (one female, two male) in November. They were all scheduled for adoption at 8 weeks and the first one out tested FeLV+. All adoptions fell through. They are gorgeous and affect

Welcome to the group Holly. You'll learn some very valuable things here. I do rescue work and have 15 rescued cats at home plus more in my cageless shelter in town. Some of the cats in my shelter are FelV positive, but seem to be doing well in spite of it. FelV supresses the cat's immune system

I meant to write, of course, that I was told that false POSITIVES are common but false negatives are virtually unheard of. My vet kind of shrugged when I told him that, though no one can give me a good account of why Dublin had a negative ELISA on his re-test when he is very clearly positive.
