Should cat owners be worried about a feline coronavirus outbreak in the UK?

NEWS… BUT NOT AS YOU KNOW IT

A type of feline coronavirus is estimated to have killed 300,000 cats in Cyprus alone.

As feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) spreads rapidly through the population of the Mediterranean island, cat owners are taking extreme action to look after their beloved pets.

So far just 107 cases of FIP have been officially recorded by the agriculture ministry on the island, but it is believed the true number is much higher.

Experts suspect there are further outbreaks in nearby Lebanon, Israel and Turkiye, but this is not yet confirmed.
