Oops - big mistake - it wasn't FIV it was for feline leukemia.  Sorry about that.  The're still not speaking to me.

I know there is a jab available, but I'm sure I've heard that they will always test positive for FIV in the future, even if they don't actually have the virus?

Luckily its not available here and it isnt popular in the states for the reason you give. Most of their shelters have a kill policy so your cat wouldnt be safe

Yikes!!  Poor everyone in Puddy's household!!  (Puddy, the next time arm yourself with a pair of oven mits like the daddy of Sparta the "Mean Kitty"...) I hope they will bounce back soon... I KNOW it's a traumatic ordeal for them but if you persist with TLC they will understand it was not the evil deed (or lets pray!!) ... dear me that reminds me... Oliver needs a visit soon, too!! :(

Which FIV jabs are these, out of curiosity?

I know there is a jab available, but I'm sure I've heard that they will always test positive for FIV in the future, even if they don't actually have the virus?

Well, we went to the vets last night with Ollie and Portia for their jabs and chips.  Had the most awful time getting Ollie into the carrier - my arm is covered in gouges from his claws.  Everything went fine at the vets - she is always lovely with the animals but now neither of them are speaking to me - according to them Lucretzia Borgia was a saint compared to me!  And the worst bit is, we have a repeat performance in 2 weeks as the CP had not done their FIV jabs. :scared:
