There are manifestations of coccidiosis in cats, and the route of coccidiosis infection in cats

Cats infected with coccidiosis are required to be **, cats infected with coccidiosis will have diarrhea, blood in the stool, dehydration and other symptoms, need to be symptomatic**, if dehydration is serious, need to rehydrate, if there is blood in the stool, need to use hemostatic drugs, and use special anthelmintic drugs for deworming, and then thoroughly disinfect the living environment.

Causes of coccidiosis

There are many causes of cat infection, the common one is maternal ** infection, such as lactating kittens infected with coccidiosis in female cats. It may also be indirect** infection, because coccidiosis can produce oocysts, oocysts can survive in the soil for a long time, if the owner accidentally touches the soil contaminated by coccidia, it may lead to cat infection after returning home, and cats may be infected with coccidiosis when they come into contact with food and drinking water contaminated with coccidiosis eggs.

Gastroenteritis and coccidiosis are different

Gastroenteritis in cats can cause diarrhea and vomiting, while coccidiosis infection usually causes diarrhea or blood in the stool in cats. Conventional anthelmintic drugs for cats cannot repel coccidiosia, and preventive decoccidosis is of little significance, the most important thing is to feed the right diet to promote the health of the cat's intestinal flora. Coccidiosis infection can be confirmed by stool testing, which can be done with sulfonamides or totrizulil**.

Coccidiosis**

Coccidiosis should be treated with specialized anthelmintic drugs**. For example, sulfonamides, dictolilib and other drugs should not be abused. Coccidiosis will cause symptoms of emaciation, diarrhea, and growth arrest in cats, so you should take it to the hospital to confirm whether it is coccidia, and follow the doctor's arrangement to feed the medicine.

Cats with severe symptoms may be hospitalized**.

Coccidiosis is an intestinal parasite, and cats with coccidiosis will have decreased appetite, lack of energy, and weight loss.

If there is coccidia, cats may have diarrhea, indigestion, and slow movement and poor spirits.

Routes of infection with Coccus vulgaris in cats1. Direct infection.

Cats may have been infected with coccidiosis by eating soil, food, water, etc. contaminated by Globrodis when they go out;

Cats come into contact with other cats infected with coccidiosis and infect coccidiosis through feces, vomit, etc.

2. Indirect infection.

The owner passes through the contaminated grass from the outside and brings home the soil with coccidiosis eggs, causing the cat to become infected after being exposed to the contaminants;

The cat may have preyed on flies that carry coccidiosis eggs.

Rodents and other species can be changed to cause cats to be infected with coccidia.

Coccidiosis is a relatively common parasite in cats, which can cause digestive symptoms in cats, such as vomiting, diarrhea, dehydration, bloody stools, weakness, low blood sugar, etc. Coccidiosis infection in kittens is very obvious, and in severe cases, it can lead to dehydration, a large amount of bloody stools, weakness, and even death.

How coccidiosis is transmitted (how cats can be infected with coccidia).

There are usually four ways in which coccidiosis can be transmitted, and this is also the way cats can be infected with coccidia.

1. Coccidiosis can be transmitted through infected meat, and will not kill coccidia under frozen conditions, but only through high temperatures. From the cat's point of view, it is to eat raw meat infected with coccidia.

2. Maternal transmission. If the mother cat has coccidiosis in her body, the baby cat can also be infected with coccidiosis within a few weeks of birth. The kitten suffers from coccidiosis more severely, and the symptoms are also watery stools, bloody stools, and even stop eating and development.

If left untimed** or severe, cats can become dehydrated or even die.

3. When cats eat animals infected with coccidiosia, infections can also occur, such as infected mice.

4. The transmission of coccidiosis begins with immature coccidia, which is called oocysts, which are excreted in feces and then ingested by other organisms and infected. It is said that healthy cats eat the feces of infected coccidiosis cats to have a small chance of infection. Speaking of this mode of transmission, I can't help but think of the myth that "cats can easily infect humans with Toxoplasmosis", Toxoplasma gondii is a genus of coccidiosis, which means that people only have a small chance of infection if they eat the feces of cats carrying coccidiodia, but will people eat it?

Which condition of the cat is more susceptible to coccidiosis.

Cats in these five conditions are usually more susceptible to coccidiosis than normal.

1. When you often eat unidentified raw meat, there is a chance of infection. (Cooked meat is fine, high temperature will kill coccidiosis and eggs).

2. Cats who often go out to hunt.

3. Kittens (under 8 weeks old) are more likely to be infected with coccidiosis.

4. Cats who are weak or immunocompromised after surgery.

5. In the case of poor environmental hygiene and the majority of cats, more serious infections may occur.

The main symptoms of coccidiosis in cats are: decreased resistance, anemia, diarrhea, blood at the end of the stool, malnutrition, dehydration, etc. Cat coccidiosis eggs can be excreted through feces, so you can take your cat's feces to the pet hospital and give it to a doctor for a stool test to confirm whether the cat has coccidia. If there are coccidiosis eggs, it is enough to feed the cat a special medicine for coccidiosis according to the doctor's instructions.

Key points of the kitten feeding:

1. Be sure to ensure that it has fresh drinking water at any time, and don't feed too much milk, as drinking too much will cause diarrhea. Milk can be diluted 1:1 with water and given to it.

2. For cats, the best food is kitten food. Cat food not only contains all kinds of nutrients that cats need, but also tastes delicious. To enrich its recipes, it can also be fed some freshly cooked fish and chicken at the right time, but with no bones.

3. Cats should be fed four times a day before three months, such as 9 a.m., 12 p.m., 6 p.m. and 10 p.m.

At 3 to 6 months of age, feed three times a day.

After six months, it is best to feed the cat dry food twice a day, which is very good for his teeth and gums.

4. If you only eat cookies and don't drink water, it will cause the cat to become dehydrated. Eating too much or too little is not good for the health of the cat. In general, an adult cat needs 150-200 grams of food per day.

Diarrhea, probiotics and drugs for diarrhea are eaten, but they are still diarrhea. If you prolapse for a long time, you will prolapse your anus. If you don't vomit much, it's diarrhea, and feces leak out after prolapse.

There is coccidiosis in the cat's body, there may be indigestion, diarrhea, soft stool, bloody stool and other symptoms, cats after being infected with coccidia, it is impossible to see it with the naked eye, you need to use a microscope, if the cat has an adverse reaction, it is recommended to take the cat to the hospital for examination. After being infected with coccidiosis, cats may have some abnormal reactions, such as indigestion, diarrhea, malnutrition, emaciation, soft stools, bloody stools, etc. After a cat is infected with coccidia, it cannot be seen with the naked eye alone, and a microscope is required.

Therefore, if the cat has an abnormal reaction, it is recommended that the breeder take the cat to the pet hospital for examination, so that the cat's health status can be observed more intuitively. After that, the cat can be treated according to the doctor's advice**.

When a cat is infected with coccidiosis, the breeder needs to isolate the sick cat from the healthy cat to prevent the infection. After that, the breeder can feed the cat deworming medicine to carry out**.
