Kittens are generally vaccinated against FeLV around 8 to 9 weeks of age. A booster vaccination is given 3 to 4 weeks later, according to the vaccine label, followed by boosters each year as long as the risk for exposure remains. Similarly, vaccination against FIV can begin when kittens are around 8 weeks of age. Two additional boosters are given 2 to 3 weeks apart, followed by boosters each year as long as the risk for exposure remains. Cats that go outside are at greater risk for exposure to FeLV and FIV compared with cats that stay indoors.
FeLV test risks. The most significant findings of the Levy study pertained to FeLV. Both the Witness and VetScan Rapid lateral flow tests demonstrated relatively poor specificity for FeLV, which means they generated false-positive results for healthy, uninfected cats. The SNAP FIV/FeLV Combo Test generated zero false-positive results. For instance, a test with 95% specificity falsely identified 5 out of 100 healthy cats as infected. This has increasing importance when screening for a disease that has a low prevalence in the population.
