Another reason to hate cats.

It looks like the bird flu is gonna kill us all. So, we should be prepared for the pandemic. The flu pandemic of 1918 supposedly killed more people than WWII. Most reported cases of bird flu have resulted from people living in close contact with fowl. Recently a man in India, transferred the bird flu to his two children who had no contact with birds. So transfer from human to human is possible. Also, unlike most avian diseases, bird flu can be contracted by cats. So, people living in close contact with cats are advised to watch their animals for symptoms. It is believed that thorough cooking will kill the virus. When I heard this I immediately thought; in order to cook the fowl (or feline) thoroughly, wouldn’t you have to handle the raw flesh?
