I understood there was no vaccination against FIV, only FelV.

Maybe she means FIP, that shot has not been proven and is too controversial.

Lynda,
I recently had 2 of my cats vax'd for felv...make sure the vax doesn't have
an adjuvant...they are known to possibly cause a sarcoma at the injection
site...The brand was Merial, and it is 'PUREVAX Recombinant Leukemia Vaccine
and the VET *JET* transdermal. I have one cat who has reactions
Just to clarify, Merial's PUREVAX Recombinant Leukemia Vaccine and the VET
JET transdermal DOES NOT have an adjuvant!

There is a FIV vax. The issue is any cat who the FIV vaccine will show

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
If you are worried about exposing your negative cats to FELV, then I would
insist on the IFA, then you would not be second guessing yourself all the time
and still have that worry in the back of your mind.

Wow, that's great news that she's tested negative. I'm so happy for you.
For my own peace of mind, I would insist on an IFA test before integrating
her into my household. If your vet won't do it, there's probably another vet
around who will.

I am so releived she tested negative. I think maybe I have read too
much sometimes. All the upstairs cats have been vaccinated against felv so that
helps even though I know it is not 100. I am going to think about this today
and view all the opinions. Thanks!

Why not have fencing on concrete? I would think that would prevent anything

nothing digs under. You also need to put a row of shingles over the wire.
When the racons, etc start digging, they run into the shingles and

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.

I just had a thought. I was shredding som paper and realized tat someone could
get their paw in it and be shredded. I will now ALWAYS unplug it when not in
use.

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.

Definitely get the IFA test. My vet ordered one for my kitty incase he may
need it, so it's not impossible for your vet not to get one for you. I know
if it were me and did not get the IFA, and the cat showed symptoms later, I
would never forgive myself.

You sound like me!
Only, I was afraid someone would sit on the thing and get a tail suck into
it! Yeowww!
So yes, unplugged. Actually, it's best to leave appliances unplugged when
not in use. Some of them use energy even when not turned on.

Condolences, Sherry, on the loss of sweet Simon and wonderful Wopsle. I'm
constantly amazed and touched that you take these little sick ones in, love
them, provide for them, then help them transition lovingly from this life.
Bless you.
