FLV and FeLV

I often get confused between FIV (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus) and FeLV (Feline Leukemia Virus). As a cat guardian, these topics are discussed among fellow cat lovers from time to time. I feel not too smart for not being able to tell which is which all the time. 

Maybe having this table like below will help me and others who are still confused about these two cat diseases.

When you welcome a new feline family member, you must test the new cat for FIV/FeLV before introducing to your current resident cat(s). If you are adopting a cat from a shelter or rescue group, the test should be done already when he/she was with them.

Therefore mutual grooming, nose-to-nose contact, and shared food and water bowls can be sources of infection. It's widespread, contagious, and often fatal virus.
