Can cats be infected through their bellies?
Generally speaking, feline peritonitis is not contagious to humans, and feline peritonitis is a chronic viral infectious disease in cats. Abdominal transmission in cats is also called feline infectious peritonitis. It is mainly caused by variation in vivo after infection with coronavirus. The common symptoms are very poor mental state, loss of appetite and continuous weight loss. Some cats will have diarrhea and vomit.

Because it is a mutated coronavirus, I am not sure whether it will be contagious. At present, there are no relevant experimental data and papers showing that the mutated coronavirus is also contagious.

Even so, it is suggested that cats infected by cats should be fed separately to avoid the possibility of infecting other cats. At present, there is no specific medicine to treat the cat's abdominal transmission, so a cat that is transmitted by a cat may die soon.
