You must not be following the news. They have already announced that cats can transmit the disease.

They say the tiger was actually tested.

quote:

A tiger at the Bronx Zoo has tested positive for the novel coronavirus, becoming the first known animal in the United States to contract the virus, the zoo and federal officials revealed Sunday.

The four-year-old Malayan tiger named Nadia was tested for covid-19 after she and several other lions and tigers came down with a dry cough starting March 27, the U.S. Department of Agriculture said in a statement. Officials believe that an asymptomatic zookeeper carrying the virus somehow transmitted the disease to the tiger while caring for the animals.

The Wildlife Conservation Society, which runs the Bronx Zoo, said it wanted to test Nadia “out of an abundance of caution,” hoping to ensure “any knowledge we gain about COVID-19 will contribute to the world’s continuing understanding of this novel coronavirus.”

Her test was confirmed positive at the USDA’s National Veterinary Services Laboratories, in what the agency described as “the first case of its kind.”

so the tiger had a fever (ok), difficulty breathing (maybe) and dry cough (what?)


Animals cough too

How did they get it a test, especially in NY where they are allegedly short on everything, and how was it administered?


From my understanding, vets have their own tests that aren’t the same as humans and therefore they weren’t taking one away from anywhere

I'm guessing they offered him a rabbit and he didn't want it.
