SNAP® FIV/FeLV Combo Test

Feline Immunodeficiency Virus/Feline Leukemia Virus

The AAFP Guidelines for Testing (PDF) recommend testing all at-risk cats, sick cats and kittens to determine infection status.

When it comes to their cats’ health, your clients don’t want to miss a thing. In fact, 80% of cat owners said they would pay for this test if their veterinarians recommended it.¹

The SNAP FIV/FeLV Combo Test makes it easy to screen for infection during a brief appointment.

Compliance Tip

By offering each of your clients the opportunity to screen for FIV/FeLV, you’re giving them a comprehensive picture of their pets’ health. Here are some ways to improve client compliance:

Develop a standard clinic protocol for FIV/FeLV testing.
Include FIV/FeLV testing on reminder cards for all cats receiving an FeLV vaccine.
Offer an FIV/FeLV observation form (PDF) and client brochure (PDF) to every cat owner who enters the clinic.
Support education on testing with client brochures and posters available through IDEXX.
Initiate a discussion with your clients about their pets’ environments, personalities and habits to determine if their cats have been exposed.
