I am down with COVID since sat and have isolated myself in my room.
My Bengal girl who seems more comfy with me, has been scratching the door and meowing all this while.
Her meows are heart breaking but I read online that COVID can be passed from human to cat pets.
Anyone else heard the same?

This article from Mayo Clinic suggests that cats and dogs can contract COVID from humans, but also says that animals don't appear to play a major role in spreading the virus to human beings. There are other tips that you might find useful and perhaps might let you feel a bit more comfortable about letting your cat spend some time outside your room. I also included another article from the CDC.
