Officials are urging pet owners not to feed their pets raw food or raw milk and to avoid letting them roam outside.

Two cats in separate New York City households have tested positive for bird flu, the city health department says.

One of the cats infected with the bird flu was an 8-month-old kitten on the Upper West Side that consumed raw chicken from Savage Cat, a company that makes raw pet food. A veterinarian said the kitten had to be euthanized.
