Prior to the cats becoming ill, their owners had experienced symptoms including <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/vomiting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#vomiting</a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/diarrhea" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#diarrhea</a>. Although the owners declined testing for bird flu, laboratory analysis confirmed the presence of the virus in both cats, with one eventually dying from the infection."This finding represents a significant development in our understanding of <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/AvianInfluenza" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AvianInfluenza</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/transmission" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#transmission</a>, as it suggests that <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/humans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#humans</a> may serve as intermediary hosts capable of passing the virus to household pets. Previously, most concern centered on direct transmission from infected birds to mammals, but these cases indicate more complex transmission patterns may exist."The indoor setting of these infections is particularly noteworthy, as it eliminates the possibility of direct contact with infected <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WildBirds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WildBirds</a>, which had been considered the primary transmission route for cats in previous outbreaks."Read more: <a href="https://rollingout.com/2025/02/25/bird-flu-transmission-humans-cats/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://rollingout.com/2025/02/25/bird-flu-transmission-humans-cats/</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/HPAINews" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HPAINews</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BirdFlu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BirdFlu</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/AvianInfluenza" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AvianInfluenza</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PetHealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PetHealth</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CatHealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CatHealth</a>

myrmepropagandistThe results from the vet for Pica came back. She has hyperthyroidism as we kind of suspected. This can be the cause of cats being hungry all the time and making a lot of noise (though it's hard since this is just how cats can tend to be)Glad we have some idea what's going on. There are pills that can help. Giving Pica pills. Well. Not looking forward to THAT. But we will work it out together. She's almost 18, very active and bossy. I hope this helps her feel better. <a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/catHealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#catHealth</a> <a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/PicaTheCat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PicaTheCat</a>

Riley.exeThis wide eyed Meow is 14 years old! He exists, seemingly for the purpose of attempting to consume anything edible and to loudly meow into the void. He suffers from poly progressive feline arthritis <a href="https://www.merckvetmanual.com/musculoskeletal-system/arthropathies-and-related-disorders-in-small-animals/polyarthritis-in-dogs-and-cats" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.merckvetmanual.com/musculoskeletal-system/arthropathies-and-related-disorders-in-small-animals/polyarthritis-in-dogs-and-cats</a> We love him🐈‍⬛ <a href="https://mastodon.babb.no/tags/catsofmastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#catsofmastodon</a> <a href="https://mastodon.babb.no/tags/caturday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#caturday</a> <a href="https://mastodon.babb.no/tags/CatHealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CatHealth</a> <a href="https://mastodon.babb.no/tags/cats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cats</a>

SylviaI need to share a little miracle. I always thought that when cats got older, it was normal that they walked up the stairs slower etc. And then I discovered our 13 year old cat suffers from arthritis. He is now on pain meds and I bought him glucosamine+ supplements. The other day he raced up the stairs. That was the start of a new lease in life for my sweet boy. He now leaps again, jumps into laps and chases toys. This makes me so happy <a href="https://social.lol/tags/cats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cats</a> <a href="https://social.lol/tags/cathealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cathealth</a> <a href="https://social.lol/tags/Caturday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Caturday</a>

Kaori 🍉☮️Fi is doing fine. He even gained weight from prescription food! Vet scared me saying his left kidney is small so he will have kidney issues.(He’s only 7years old!) At the same time He told me let Fi eat prescription food like forever.(The food manufacturer says cats should not keep eating prescription food over 6 months?)I got cold (common cold)So I will go to sleep 💤 <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/CatsOfMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CatsOfMastodon</a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/Cats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Cats</a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/CatHealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CatHealth</a>

Fliss"Not the vets again?" asks Delilah. She's been 3 times this week but declared "almost certainly not diabetic" (thank goodness!), may have pancreatitis (but today that seems unlikely apparently) and has had a long lasting steroid given to see if it'll settle her stomach and stop her being sick. Keeping fingers crossed - it's worked for all of half a day so far. <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Caturday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Caturday</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Cat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Cat</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/CatHealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CatHealth</a>

Sunny MoraineFigured I might just do a kind of random PSA about this, since I basically never see it mentioned anywhere and it’s easy to miss.FELLOW CAT-ROOMMATE HUMANS. Have you noticed that your (likely elderly) cat friend’s head will shudder rapidly sometimes, seemingly in response to certain sounds? Maybe their eyes widen and they seem to blank out for a minute?
