@QueenOfEverything @CanisPundit the picture that was with this article I didn’t want to share it was horrible looking at the results of that. It was too much for me. And I’m a dog person so yeah

Yes, I saw it on X- it appears to be a fake. I don’t understand what causes people to create these posts. The false information is bad enough - for pet lovers like us- but to post those kinds of photos are really warped.
@CanisPundit sorry this was the link that followed this study.

I've tried to track this done, and can't find any source for it except for a post on X (no sources)
The closest thing I found was a Cornel Vet Study that proves feline coronavirus can transfer between domestic & wild cats.
No transfer to humans.
