⚠️ H5N1, a type A influenza virus, is spreading among birds and some mammals in the U.S., including cats.
Here’s how you can help protect your pets:
· Avoid feeding raw meat or dairy.
· Keep cats indoors to limit exposure to wildlife.
· While the risk to dogs is less clear, it’s best to keep all pets away from dead animals, livestock, wildlife, and their waste.
· If your pet shows signs of illness, such as lethargy, fever, or respiratory issues, contact your veterinarian.
This is a developing situation, but taking simple precautions can help keep your pet safe. Check out our graphic for more details and share it to raise awareness.
