Belgian woman infected her cat with Coronavirus

From the brusselstimes.com article "Coronavirus: Belgian woman infected her cat" (link below):

"A Belgian woman from the Liege province has infected her cat with the coronavirus, reported the FPS Public Health during the daily update press conference about the new coronavirus (Covid-19).

"The veterinary medicine faculty in Liege reported that a coronavirus infection has been determined in a cat. The cat lived with her owner, who started showing symptoms of the virus a week before the cat did," said professor Steven Van Gucht.

The animal lived in close contact with its owner, and started showing symptoms a week after the woman did. "The cat had diarrhoea, kept vomiting and had breathing difficulties. The researchers found the virus in the cat's faeces," he added. ...
...
So far, only three cases where the pet has been infected by humans are known across the world. It concerns two dogs in Hong Kong, and now a cat in Belgium. Both dogs did not show any signs of disease, but the cat has respiratory and digestive disorders, according to the Federal Food Agency."
