This is especially bad if the human is a pregnant female. It can cause all kinds of problems. Here is a quick sampling of all the info out there: Toxoplasma gondii has very low host specificity, and it will probably infect almost any mammal. It has also been reported from birds, and has been found in virtually every country of the world. Like most of the Apicomplexa, Toxoplasma is an obligate intracellular parasite. Its life cycle includes two phases called the intestinal (or enteroepithelial) and extraintestinal phases. The intestinal phase occurs in cats only (wild as well as domesticated cats) and produces "oocysts." The extraintestinal phase occurs in all infected animals (including cats) and produces "tachyzoites" and, eventually, "bradyzoites" or "zoitocysts." The disease toxoplasmosis can be transmitted by ingestion of oocysts (in cat feces) or bradyzoites (in raw or undercooked meat) (view a diagram of the life cycle). Several of these life cycle stages are shown below. In most humans infected with Toxoplasma, the disease is asymptomatic. However, under some conditions, toxoplasmosis can cause serious pathology, including hepatitis, pneumonia, blindness, and severe neurological disorders. This is especially true in individuals whose immune systems are compromised (e.g., AIDS patients). Toxoplasmosis can also be transmitted transplacentally resulting in a spontaneous abortion, a still born, or a child that is severely handicapped mentally and/or physically. For more info from the site this was taken from: http://www.biosci.ohio-state.edu/~parasite/toxoplasma.html If you want to know even more, type 'Toxoplasma gondii' into google and hang onto your hat! (Results 1 - 10 of about 52,600. Search took 0.32 seconds.) The thing to remember is not to handle the feces with bare hands or change litter without a mask. I still think this is more prevelent with outdoor cats. -------------------------- Message 9565 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Tue Dec 2 05:49:33 2003 EST From: DragonBabe (#5288) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: Re: Quinn's THBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBTS!

This was sent to me and I was asked to share, sooo ... thought I would share! >We asked the local TARGET store to be a proud sponsor of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall during our spring recognition event. We received the following reply from the local TARGET management: "Veterans do not meet our area of giving. We only donate to the arts, social action groups, gay &lesbian causes, and education." So I'm thinking, if the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall and veterans in general do not meet their donation criteria, then something is really wrong at this TARGET store. We were not asking for thousands of dollars, not even hundreds, just a small sponsorship for a memorial remembrance. As a follow-up, I e-mailed the TARGET U.S. corporate headquarters and their response was the same. That's their national policy. Then I looked into the company further. They will not allow the Marines to collect for 'Toys for Tots' at any of their stores. And during the recent Iraq deployment, they would not allow families of employees who were called up for active duty to continue their insurance coverage while they were on military service. Then as I dig further, TARGET is a French-owned corporation. >Now, I'm thinking again. If TARGET can not support American Veterans, then why should I and my family support their stores by spending our hard earned American dollars and to have their profits sent to France. Without the American Vets, where would France be today? Feel free to pass this along to whomever you want. I don't do a lot of shopping at Target, but now with this? Pass it on folks.. -------------------------- Message 9575 from *Chat (#5391): Date: Tue Dec 9 08:01:54 2003 EST From: DragonBabe (#5288) To: *Chat (#5391) Subject: Re: $ OOps..
