Cross-reactivity issues with the tests, FIP in cats is caused by a coronavirus, and that, AFAIK, there hasn’t been a single well-documented case of zoonotic transmission of SARS-CoV-2.

Just a thought...More likely than not...These cats would not have gotten Covid if they were in the wild. (I think zoos are cruel.) It’s the confinement that lets it spread.

Likely. Especially in the case of Snow Leopards as they live in the high mountains of Central Asia. One of the remotest places one the plant.

"Wonder if they gave them cat wormer, you know, that iversomething?"

Come to think of it, I haven't heard of any horses coming down with COVID.

Vaxxers hate animals. I’m hiding Murphy, my 90 pound Golden retriever.

Scroll down for the questions pertaining to critters. Note the FDA’s tap dance around the subject.

The cross-reactivity issue should be a YUGE deal, but for some reason, like nosocomial spread, it doesn’t get discussed.

Go figure.

Folks, would you please note that these stories relating to coof in big cats NEVER mention FIP being specifically ruled out.

Snow Leopards sound like white supremacist cats.

"Every time I hear one of these stories, I think the exact same thing. Thanks, China!"

Also, thanks Dr. Mengele Fauci.

You should take a look at the recent reports that a canvas of deer in Iowa showed that 80% of them had been infected with COVID. IIRC, there are many reports of infected animals from around the world. Oddly, none from China…

That’s one of the sickest pictures I’ve ever seen. No doubt...it is criminal.

This is what happens when Mr. Fauxi illegally funds banned gain-of-function experiments; more organisms get infected, and they spread the infection more easily with worse consequences.

This is also what happens when Pfascist korporations manufacture the Jim Jones Jab and collaborate with corrupt governments to spread it around.

The funding and creation of COVID-1984 along with the follow-on Jim Jones Jab may turn out to be the worst crime to date in world history.

Back in late January/early February 2020, our two cats got some respiratory thing, which was pretty rare-never had that kind of thing in any of our cats. They weren’t in real distress, but you could hear their breathing was kind of labored. My wife put them both in the bathroom, shut the door and turned on a hot shower for a while.

Interestingly, at the same time, I got hoarse and a sore throat and my wife got a sore throat as well. I am one of those lucky people who rarely get flu and colds.

It was unusual for me. Later, I wondered if we had all contracted a mild case of Covid. It was the right time.

big cats NEVER mention FIP

Doubtful, because cats in zoos are regularly vaccinated against FIP.

Snow leopards, beagle puppies, even 5-year-old American children ... it’s all the same to America’s mengele (sounds, appropriately, plural).
