Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) Feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) is a type of virus called a retrovirus. It is in the same family as feline leukemia virus (FeLV) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV, the virus that causes AIDS). It attacks the immune system, and as a result, the cat is unable to fight off various infections and cancers. Approximately 2.5% of cats in the United States are infected with FIV.

- FIP is caused by a virus. Cats can be infected with feline coronavirus (FCoV). There are two types of this virus which cannot be distinguished from each other in laboratory tests.One is avirulent (does not cause disease) or only mildly virulent and is called feline enteric coronavirus (FECV).he other type is virulent (produces disease), is the cause of FIP, and is called feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV). It is believed that FIP occurs when FECV mutates to FIPV in the cat and starts to replicate in the cat's cells. What causes this mutation is unknown.

Testing for FIV and FeLV Once cats have been vaccinated against FIV, the antibody assay for the virus is no longer useful, since the test cannot distinguish between antibodies produced as a result of infection and those produced following vaccination. Unfortunately, there is no test available at present to diagnose FIV in FIV-vaccinated cats.

Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) All of these conditions also occur in cats without FIV infection, so an association with FIV is often speculative. A diagnosis of FIV infection is not cause for alarm. Since the virus has a long incubation period, a cat who tests FIV-positive may live free of FIV-related disease for a lifetime. Furthermore, FIV-vaccinated cats are indistinguishable from FIV-infected cats. Against FIV Testing. Alley Cat Allies does not support testing feral cats for FIV.
