    What if it infects endangered cats? That's just as terrifying

      In a Study in Germany Theo went from house to house from infected people and took probes from surfaces and pets like cats. Non of the cats were tested positive in theses tests and the probes from the surfaces has RNA of the Viruses but weren't inftectious. A study from iran also found RNA of Sars-Cov-2 but no infectious Virus. I have to emphasize here that i'm no expert and this doesn't mean that you don't have to follow the guidlines that you know.
      This is not for you in person. I just don't want people, who read this, to act irresponsible.
      The german study also didn't come to a final conclusion, yet, but so far, said the professor who is leading the study, it looks like cats and dogs are not endangered and are also not infectious.

      @@Devi_Seona Hmm, yeah. Now I just read about a Study in China, that says cats can be infected, but aren't relevant for the spreading of the Virus. So far i didn't find anything about if it's dangerous for cats.

      Oh you didnt hear? And I do hope this is fake but a couple over in India or somewhere in the middle east, they had twin children, the girl was named Corona and the boy Covid. And the girl is very understandable because Corona in Spanish is crown so it's fine with me but covid or why even name them that

    Zoos need to be closed until it is known for sure what the possibilities of transmission are, and what routes contamination is happening through. There are so many critically endangered or vulnerable species in Zoos. There need to be protocols in place for vets and techs and workers so they are unable to pass Covid-19 on to the animals they are working on. Care from them from a safe distance! I am a exotics veterinarian in Canada. Still practicing through this time, but I use proper PPE with both clients and their animals daily. Some people don't feel symptoms at all, or not for 4-5 day. However, for those 4-5 days they are able to pass on the virus!! Stay safe, and think of others as well as yourself, not just including humans. We are on this planet together and all need to get through this difficult time together.

    This is not the first cat that caught Covid19. In Belgium there was a pet cat that caught it too. Take care of your loved ones , no matter how many legs they have. Stay safe and healthy everyone. ❤🐾👍

    I've heard allot of people complain about tigers getting tests when in reality only 1/25,000 tigers getting tested in the US is a pretty realistic number.

    Why would they even think of putting them down? If that's how they approach this, they have no business dealing with those animals. We need Sanctuaries, not zoo's.

    does that mean it could mutate more easily? or our feline friends are being infected by different virus that happens to show positive when testing with CoVID-19 tester?

      Don't know but they refuse to take it seriously. More than one animal around the world has seem to have caught it. They should do verified testing just to be sure beyond reasonable doubt. But they want to be like "nah, this is rare".
