New research suggests that cats may be "silent intermediate hosts" of COVID-19.
According to scientists, that means cats may not show symptoms that would be recognized by humans.
In the study, 3 cats were inoculated with COVID-19 and then paired in a home with 3 cats that did not have COVID-19.
Researchers found that within 3days, the virus was detected in the cats that were inoculated.
They also found that within 8 days, the formerly healthy cats also tested positive for the virus.
According to Business Insider, experts said none of the cats in the study showed any symptoms.
Experts say most pets probably aren't at risk, and there's no evidence the virus can spread from pets to humans.
