H5N1 bird flu has been spreading widely among wild birds, poultry and other animals around the world for several years .
In the last 14 months , infections have been reported in 70 people in the U.S. - most of them workers on dairy and poultry farms.
California had been a hotspot, with three-quarters of the nation’s infections in dairy cattle.
Barn cats that died after drinking raw milk were one of the first signs that dairy cows were becoming infected with bird flu in 2024 .
Since then, the Agriculture Department has confirmed more than 120 domestic cats infected with the virus across the U.S. Less is known about milder infections, whether cats can recover from bird flu or whether the virus can spill over into people.
