Cyprus :Feline coronavirus - ‘island of dead cats’
 
We must ban all Cats from Cyprus.

It is in UK already


[There are fears a type of
feline coronavirus may kill cat
populations across the world
if it continues to spread.
Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP),
which is not transmissible to humans,
is estimated to have killed thousands
of cats on the Mediterranean island
of Cyprus in recent months.
So far just 107 cases of FIP have been
officially recorded by the
agriculture ministry in the southern part
of the island,
but experts think the true number is
much higher owing to the country’s
huge stray cat population.

Head of Cat Protection and
Welfare Society (PAWS) Cyprus,
and vice-president of
Cyprus Voice for Animals,
Dinos Ayiomamitis, said:
‘We have lost 300,000 cats since
January from FIP.’]
