Feline Retrovirus Testing and Management Guidelines - Part Two FIV, by the AAFP. Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) Diagnosis and pathogenesis of FIV are less, with transient fever, lymphadenopathy, and lymphopenia. They have a high FIV concentration by culture and PCR, in FIV+ cats. Survival time is highly variable but similar to uninfected cats, and several studies, to antigen-antibody complexes sequestering antigen. As with FeLV, diagnosis of FIV positive status should, in low risk cats. Confirm with PCR or IFA for FeLV and PCR or Western Blot for FIV. Antibodies
