After your cat has gone through its more elaborate set of
kitten-shots, the FeLV vaccine should be given once a year. If you
adopt an adult cat and don't know if it has been vaccinated for
FeLV, start it immediately on its annual shots. If you are unsure
if your adult cat needs be vaccinated, talk to your vet. Prices
vary between vets, locally and nationally. I surveyed readers of
rec.pets.cats and contacted vets around the country and found that
