No her cat who was positive died and the two she has left are negative, and inside only cats. She called about annual boosters for them, and her vet told her he didn't recommend the annual booster. I haven't checked with my own vet yet. My own cats are inside/outside cats and all originally tested negative, but because of going outside they may still need annual FelV vaccinations.
