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

I found this on vetinfo.com (see below). My vet uses the vaccine from
Pfizer. I don't know what the difference is or if there is any.

My vet is out of town. Does anyone have an idea as to how long it takes for
a kitten or cat to be protected against FeLV once he/she receives the
vaccine? (I do realize that the vaccine is not a 100% guarantee).

I have never heard this before and have had FELV cats since 2003, and
read up on it, used to more than I do now. I seriously doubt if
there's any truth to it at all. Perhaps they're getting mixed up with
the FIV vaccine causing a cat to TEST positive for FIV (not turn
positive though).
Well, not exactly - what actually happened was I obtained 2 cats from
a lady in Oklahoma, and she was a vet tech. She knew they were FELV
positive, and had them for several years. HER VET (not mine) had
vaccinated them for FELV regularly, and believed that it was helpful
to FELV cats.

actually, there IS anecdotal evidence, on this list, that vaccinating FeLVs
against FeLVs results in longer-lived cats.. which is against what
"common" wisdom would say, but there were a lot of folks here and then off
the list whose oldest positive cats had all been vaccinated, either because

My understanding is that the vaccine is 85-90% effective.
We vaccinate all our rescue cats, and I vaccinate all my personal cats. You
will find others on this list who do not vaccinate at all. It is a very
personal decision.

Sabrina,
Thanks for your feedback on the FelV vaccine. Years ago when the
vaccine first came out I heard it was not too effective, but I hoped
it had improved.
Has anyone else had experience with the vaccine to share with me?
