A recent outbreak of bird flu in Colorado has affected 11 pet cats, with only one survivor. The infected cats had both indoor and outdoor access and were found to have consumed raw pet food and raw poultry products. This highlights the high susceptibility of domestic cats to Avian Influenza, which often results in death. To prevent further spread, health officials recommend avoiding feeding raw poultry to pets and taking extra precautions when handling raw pet food or poultry.
