YOUR PETS AND COVID-19
Dogs, cats, people and MANY other species are commonly infected with coronaviruses. It's important for everyone to realize that this virus family is not new and, therefore, shouldn't be feared as some horrible, unknown entity. The anxiety arising from such references online and elsewhere is very unfortunate.
We should all continue with our good community hygiene practices as you've heard reiterated in the media to try to mitigate the spread of the virus. We should be doing this at all times anyway, especially during the flu season.
We encourage everyone to consult reliable sources for your information about the current coronavirus pandemic:
