ABC22: Cat in Iowa Diagnosed with H1N1
IOWA-The Lloyed Veterinary Medical Center at Iowa recently diagnosed the first cat with H1N1. It seems the animal's owners were suffering from flu like symptoms and then suddenly so was the cat. Needless to say their vet looked at them strange when they asked to get him tested for H1N1, but sure enough he had it. Prior to this case, experts didn't believe household pets could catch H1N1 but recently some ferrets were also diagnosed with the virus. Now they're telling people to protect their animals the same way you protect other humans. Wash your hands, cough in your arm and if your pet begins to exhibits abnormal behavior take them to a doctor.
