The survival time of coronavirus in cats indoors is mainly related to the living carrier. If it is directly exposed to dry air, the survival time is usually about a few minutes. In other cases outside the body, the survival time is about seven to ten days. The virus has poor heat resistance and acid resistance, so it can be disinfected using ultraviolet light, high temperature, and disinfectant. Cats will still carry the virus for life after being cured, but it will not affect the cat's own health. Be careful not to be stressed and cause recurrence.

Measures to prevent coronavirus in cats:

1. Pay more attention to the hygiene of the breeding environment, keep the environment clean and dry, and clean it regularly to prevent virus infection and the growth of bacteria.

2. Improve the cat’s own immunity and consume sufficient nutrients. Instead of just regular dry food, you can prepare fresh vegetables and meat for your cat. Pay attention to changes in quality rather than simply increasing quantity. You can also take in appropriate amounts of nutritional supplements whose main function is to improve immunity.

3. Let cats exercise and bask in the sun appropriately. Through exercise, they can promote blood circulation, speed up metabolism, and achieve the purpose of strengthening their physical fitness. Cats with strong immune systems are less likely to get sick.

4. Regularly disinfect your home. It is best to use professional pet disinfectants. It is recommended to use economical chlorine dioxide, which is effective against most bacteria and viruses and is cheap.

5. Avoiding cats being exposed to coronavirus is the most effective preventive measure. Normal coronavirus virions can survive in dry secretions for seven weeks, and conventional disinfectants can inactivate the virus. After touching other kittens outside, the first thing you should do when you come back is wash your hands with sterilizing hand sanitizer and clean them with running water to avoid bringing viruses home.
