A serologic survey in Italy found that cats had a higher seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies compared to dogs, particularly among animals in close contact with SARS-CoV-2-positive owners.
We conducted a serologic survey among dogs and cats in Italy to detect antibodies against severe acute respiratory syndrome virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). We found that SARS-CoV-2 seroprevalence was higher among cats (16.2%) than dogs (2.3%). In addition, seroprevalence was higher among animals living in close contact with SARS-CoV-2-positive owners.
