Bird Flu and cats

[MattEg]

In Austria, several cats have tested positive for the deadly strain of bird flu.

Pet owners have been warned to keep their pets indoors in areas where the disease has been detected.

With this I think we'll see an increase in stray cats.
As with domesticated birds, everyone is trying to get rid of their pet cockatoo.

my cats dont go out, so luckily not a problem

People keep cats and call them pets, but really they should remember that a cat wont do anything it doesnt want to!

Unless you keep it locked up 24hrs a day, like they all should be.
