Will be more careful with this claim:
- it is one isolated study
- the disclaimer mentioned that it is not yet peer reviewed
- the article is full of correlation and not causation that even author underlined carefully.
Well this would only be a problem if this deranged, poorly reported blog post was actually an article in the Paper Of Record. Thank goodness it won't get global distribution that will muddy the waters of a concerning growing crisis.
a vá tnc NYT, cheio de pirralho catarrento q nunca se vacinou por conta de pais idiotas e vem agora jogar hate nos gatenhos? Vector for bird-flu é meu ovo esquerdo!
Also start attacking fur farms. 😩 Finland still giving a lot of government money to them even after even potentially dangerous strains of bird flu on the animals, not to even mention how unethical the whole thing is. 🥲
This may shock you but millions of cats never step foot outside the home. Also I pick cats over dogs any day! Cats would never work for the cops and they don’t kill people every year like dogs do.
People who don’t like cats have problems with control. You have to earn the love and loyalty of cats and respect their boundaries. Cats are better than dogs because they’d never work for the cops and they don’t kill people every year.
Why are they ‘pointless’? Mine solved a rodent problem I had, beyond that they offer unconditional love and make me laugh. Who or what else is pointless? Dogs that don’t hunt? Kids because they don’t contribute economically? I don’t trust you and this is a weird take.
I am BEGGING reporters to please understand the risks of making implicit connections in the stories they are putting out into the world. We do not need people to now think, with weak evidence, that their cats will get them sick.
The last thing shelters need is to overloaded with people giving up their cats out of fear, abandoning their cats outside, or causing harm to feral cats out of a misplaced fear getting sick.
Many cat owners survived the plague years because the cats keep down the rodent population...then the church burned them for being witches because they didn't get sick...

Start attacking raw animal food like meat or dairy, those can cause, it's proven, bird flu and an array of other diseases.
The cats ate them all.
