As most of you have read we have been dealing with the protozoan parasite Feline Tritrichomonas Foetus since the girls were kittens, 2 1/2 yrs. This is becoming more prevalent in Catteries and shelters and is often the cause of chronic diarrhea and loose stools. It is often mis-diagnosed as Giardia or IBD and therefore not properly treated. I thought it might be helpful to list links with the most up to date information on this.
I think that all cat owners should become familiar with this as it is an emerging problem in cats and Vets are not yet up to snuff on this.
This is a guide put together by Jody Gookin at NCSU, she has been the researcher on this disease and had numerous grants to study it.
www.cvm.ncsu.edu/docs/documents/ownersguide_tfoetus_revised042808.pdfFabcats has information under the breeders section
