Cats may be poisonous! 🐱☣️
"Fel d 1, the major cat allergen, may satisfy some criteria to be considered a toxin. In this sense, domestic cats would be considered poisonous mammals (able to present a toxin but devoid of specialized toxin-delivery apparatus). ... This Fel d 1 profile is strikingly similar to loris BGE protein, a secretoglobin present in slow loris venom." https://www.scielo.br/j/jvatitd/a/FZwWdPMn6JMGRXnmyGXdfpv/?format=html&lang=en
