Do "gets"? Do you mean "cats"?

"Gets" is apparently a word for animal offspring, which I have not heard before, but I can't tell if you mean that or you're just using Kiwifarms under the influence.

I am under the influence of being a retard. I did mean cats.

From chatgpt:

Yes — domestic cats can become infected with SARS-CoV-2, typically from close contact with infected humans. It's been confirmed in various studies and real-world cases. Cats can even transmit the virus to other cats, though that's not common.

There’s no strong evidence that cats lose their sense of taste or smell in the same way humans often do. However:

• Some infected cats show reduced appetite, which could suggest something similar is going on.
• Cats obviously can’t tell us if food tastes weird, so it’s speculative.
• Scientists suspect there might be some sensory impact, but it's not well studied or documented.

Idk but my cat lost her voice once. It occurred in the covid pandemic tho. I had some peace for a week because she is a very happy talk-active kitty. She did not had any pain and I took her to the vet for a check up.
