A member asked:
Can i catch pneumonia from my cat's pneumonia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe: Depends on the cause of the cat's disease. Many viruses are host-specific and not transmitted from animals to man, but many are. Cats carry a bundle of transmittable diseases, but not generally through pneumonia.
