day 12: the result was… coccidia..!

Dr. C called and told us that we carried coccidia..!
coccidia; small protozoans (one-celled organisms) that multiply in the intestinal tracts of cats and dogs, most commonly in kittens and puppies less than six months of age..
of-course, coccidiosis is treatable.
from now on, we are going to take drug treatments for three weeks!
sounds like we can’t seem to have any fun doing that..

“If the kitten has been at the new home for less than thirteen days, then it had coccidia before it arrived.” that means that we carried coccidia from our foster home or the shelter. hope the foster or cats owners could take care of our other family members and friends..
