A domestic cat in Germany has become the first European Union mammal to die
of the deadly H5N1 strain of bird flu.
The cat was found dead at the weekend on the Baltic island of Ruegen, where dozens of birds infected with H5N1 have been found.
Further north, Sweden has detected "aggressive" bird flu in two wild ducks
and is testing to confirm H5N1.
Meanwhile, vets from 50 countries have been meeting in Paris for a second day
to discuss ways to combat the virus.
