Cats and dogs susceptible to coronavirus

If you have a pet and test positive for Covid-19, you can transmit the virus to it

Last Sunday, the Wildlife Conservation Society in New York announced that Nadia, a four-year-old female tiger at the Bronx Zoo, tested positive for Covid-19.

The testing was done after the tiger and six other big cats, three lions and three tigers, developed a dry cough and the zoo learned that one of the animals’ handlers was positive for the virus.
