@arstechnica I don’t know, that Abbott guy really seems to understand science. Really smart governor and not a piece of shit or anything, this is probably overblown.

@arstechnica
Really intelligent that they knew the cows were sick , the milk discolored and they gave it to the cats anyway.
Fertilizer for brains...

@arstechnica It's been widely reported at other affected dairies as well. This virus is absolutely lethal in cats. Half of 24 farm cats at the one dairy where they took samples died.

I saw that.
Three barn cats?

Aside from the zoological disease aspect, that’s such a shame.
I’ve always loved barn kitties.
