Several DUers look after ferals. This report is from Poland, so no news yet of any infections in the US, but it demonstrates that it is possible.

Also, for pets who are not ferals, it's important to keep them indoors. And keep them away from ferals.

A hopeful thought is that ferals who are well fed and cared for might be less likely to hunt birds.
