I just read that dog influenza is spreading throughout the U.S., and that it started out in horses. http://www.cnn.com/2005/US/10/14/dog.flu.ap/index.html
Jamie and eight other cats in our county (in Germany) became ill last month, and tested positive for human influenza. I wonder if we have to worry about our cats getting dog flu, too? We were told to make sure to get flu shots this year, so that we don't get flu and give it to Jamie, as another bout would be really bad for him. Has anybody else's cat gotten human flu?
