You could’ve left off “at Bronx zoo” to really get some clickbait going! Could’ve been Tiger Woods!

Coronavirus is a common problem in felines. It is a cause of FIP (feline infectious peritonitis).
I'm not sure if this is the same strain that is the current problem.
Coronavirus in cats, as I said, is common. It's not a problem until it mutates, spreading to abdominal tissues ("Wet FIP) or the central nervous system ("Dry FIP").

Saw that. I wonder if it has the same picture as that in humans.
