FIV Transmission in Cats. The FIV virus was first identified in 1986. Cats usually pick up FIV via bites from infected felines, so outdoor cats are at highest risk. Since tom cats fight with each other the most, they're at an even greater risk. Once infected, symptoms might not appear for quite some time -- even years.
