Abstract
The world is still facing the first pandemic of the century, SARS-CoV-2, and another virus that appears to have been spreading silently the Monkeypox, and has the potential to become public health. Although is not very yet a serious problem, due to their zoonotic potential veterinarians should be informed regarding this disease not only to identify the symptoms in animals but also to clarify the owners regarding the care that they should have with their pets.
