can cats and dogs catch swine flu?
With the epidemic scare of the swine flue, it doesn't surprise me that this morning I received 2 chat messages/questions from potential customers concerned about whether their cats and dogs can catch the swine flue.
According the BBC on-line as well as other news sources cats and dogs cannot catch the swine flue.
The scientific reasoning for why cats and dogs can't catch swine flu is our genetics are different, and a flu virus that "fits" our human system likely won't fit within your dog or cat's.
