Can a stomach virus live on pets?

Generally no. There are a few types of illnesses shared between people and animals but a stomach virus isn't one of them. Pets have a natural body temperature of 101.5 so viruses and bacteria that thrive in our bodies can not do so in theirs and vis-versa. They have their own illnesses as we have ours. We can't give them a stomach flu or catch theirs.
