We have an atrium in our home that is open to the sky. Birds perch on the roof and sometimes their droppings fall into our tiled atrium. Our cats are indoor cats but are allowed to go into the atrium because it is completely enclosed and safe from the outdoor hazards of coyotes, cars, etc. But I've noticed that one of the kitties seems to be eating something on the floor of the atrium and I suspect that it can be excrement from the birds. If it is true, it is totally gross and not typical of my fastidious little animals. Any ideas out there?Can cats catch Avian Flu other contract other diseases from eating bird droppings?
cats are not a vector for avain flu.
Pigs and humans are vectors for H5N1
kittens will eat just about anything that grosses you outCan cats catch Avian Flu other contract other diseases from eating bird droppings?
cats have gotten avian flu but it's not a common event. ALSO where are you? recall the H5N1 flu everyone worries about is not in the US.
