Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed | 12 lbs
Are my cats at risk of getting the Wuhan Coronavirus that's showed up in Snohomish (where I live)? I have three adult cats and one who's very old. She doesn't go outside much. Thank you in advance.

In general, viruses are species specific. However, with this being a new virus (or so they believe) it cannot be known at this time if the virus can make the jump between species. I recommend to take the same precautions with her as you do yourself. I hope this helps.
