Is there a connection between me being sick and my cat? General Dog Discussions
So, quite a few days ago I started to get sick. Now my throat has been killing me. I've been told it isn't strep or mono and that my white blood cell count is a bit elevated. It REALLY hurts when I swallow. Well, my grandmother's friend had said before 'dogs carry the bacteria for sore throat'. My grandmother started worrying that I got this from my cat. (I don't have a dog.) My grandmother says that she has noticed that my cat is swallowing funny. So here's what I want to know:Could I have gotten this from my cat?Is it possible that my cat is in as much pain when he swallows as I am when I swallow?Anything else you can tell me on the subject can and will help, thank you.
