Study: Variants of COVID-19 in cats followed the same timeline as the humanpopulation
The research also found that patterns of immunity to different variants in cats reflect the human pandemic, indicating multiple ongoing human-to-cat transmission events. However, it is unknown whether individual SARS-CoV-2 variants are more or less likely to be transmitted from humans to cats, or whether infected cats are more or less likely to develop clinical signs.
Professor Margaret Hosie, also from the CVR, added,"We predicted that the low seroprevalence reported in cats early in the pandemic would increase as new, more transmissible variants emerged, and we are continuing to monitor cats for evidence of infection with currently circulating variants. Currently, our recommendation is that if cats regularly going outside, then they should still be allowed outdoor access if their owners have COVID-19.
