Experts have warned UK pet owners about the potential consequences of a deadly coronavirus outbreak in Cyprus that has killed 300,000 cats.

It is a result of the feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) virus that they caught on the island since January, according to Dinos Ayiomamitis, head of Cats PAWS Cyprus.

The main worry for British owners is the "long history" between Cyprus and ex-pats travelling to and from the island, with many people rehoming cats to the UK.

But what is FIP and why have so many cats died?

Certain restaurants hit hardest.

Who will volunteer to mask every cat?
Sounds like a big and thankless job.

And how do you make them stay six feet apart? 🤔

You’re not the only one.

I can only find stories about this dating back five days.

I can find bupkis on the guy making the claims.

BTW, anyone noticed their local vets being bought out by Big Vet.

Vets disappearing after leaving due to non-competees they had to sign when their practices were bought out.

Don’t find out the hard way that Big Vet is just as bad as Big Med.

They should transfer the virus to Australia.

Biological weapons in traditional stockpiles are so 1990's. Now the NIH, CDC, WHO, and sub contractors build research labs in every third world $hithole out there. Then they just let a few beagles loose among the general population to launch bio-weapons.

Rein these bastards in, prosecute them, and let them name the names directing their pandemic mayhem.

When we hear Gates, Soros, Davos, WEF, Zuckerbucks, Obama, Jarrett, Kissenger, Graham, Kerry, et. al...... We will not be surprised.

Somebody do Cyprus a favor. And order 300,00 of these books.
