Can animals/pets get Corona virus?

I hope not. I feel so lonely, so I've secretly brought them into the house - just for play time (My husband doesn't know about this. Good thing he is not around for 2 weeks🤫)

Nope. Just like we can't get a cat virus.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow News came out. A pet dog in Hong Kong contracted Corona. :(

@Darkmare There have been a few stories claiming that since it started but I have yet to see anything actually backed with proof. The likelihood of that is pretty slim.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow I hope so too. Imagine if the animals can get it, there will be a lot of killings. We have a lot of strays here. :(

@Darkmare Assuming it could even be transmitted the way most diseases jump from species to species is ingestion and I don't think we are anywhere near dogs chewing on bodies in the streets.
