This study conducted during the first wave of the coronavirus disease in Europe found a 4.4% seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in domestic cats, indicating possible human-to-cat transmission.
We conducted a severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 antibody seroprevalence study among >2,000 domestic cats from 4 countries during the first coronavirus disease wave in Europe. We found 4.4% seroprevalence using a virus neutralization test and 4.3% using a receptor-binding domain ELISA, demonstrating probable human-to-cat transmission.
