ok so not sure if this is in the right category sorry if not. I’m just a bit freaked out by everything I’ve been reading online so far about coccidia. I found 4 kittens Monday with what looks like the mom dead near the road. I took all 4 home called rescues , shelters etc. and was told by all they weren’t accepting any kittens. Then called a few people I knew where considering adopting a kitten anyway long story short 3 found homes. So I’ve been considering keeping the 4th but after a vet visit we were told the poor baby has coccidia. The vet made it sound like it was no big deal but from what ive read this is something that never goes away which means at some point the kitten will pass it to my other cats which I’m not happy about. Their all healthy and happy cats so I really don’t want to be introducing them to something. I’ve had the kitten in a spare room which I guess now I have to spay down with ammonia and sanitize anything she touches. One thing I read even said I could pass it to my other cats if I hold the kitten and then my cats are around the clothes I was wearing !!! Anyway sorry so long just a bit freaked and worried my cats are in danger of catching it to. Any advice is appreciated or suggestions on cleaning products. I’m also wondering if I should try and find this kitten a home as an only cat so she won’t be passing this on to others. She’s a sweetie so I’d like for her to stay but again I really want my fur babies already in our home to be safe.
