CATS ARE SUSCEPTIBLE TO COVID-19







A tiger at the Bronx Zoo tested positive for COVID-19, and was believed to have contracted the virus from an asymptomatic zookeeper.   Five other tigers and lions at the zoo have shown signs of respiratory distress. 
 

Though animals are a comfort to the sick, people showing symptoms of the virus should isolate themselves from their pets.
  

If you must have a comfort animal, I think buzzards are probably OK.
