if so, I would recommend IV shots of immuno-regulin. That really helped my

I used that line or a variation of that quote to my vet on my last visit. I

Right now I am hoping and praying, probably without reason, that Lucy has

is the treatment of choice and it usually takes 3 weeks for significant

Toxoplasmosis is treatable with antibiotics. Clindamycin appears to be the
antibiotic of choice, at least initially.

Titers for toxo do not necessarily tell you if a cat has toxo, but there are
two that can help: IGM titer and IGG titer. Apparently the ratio between the
two can strongly indicate toxo. Regardless of whether you do these tests,
though, or their results I would start on clindamycin

They get it from feces by getting it on their paws in the litter box and
then grooming themselves.
Good point. I wonder if a foster cat brought it in.
When did he start on clindamycin? any improvement?

Sending lots of healing vibes to Bandit, Lynette. Sounds like he's on
the road to recovery already. Wonderful that you can be home with him.
I'm sure that in itself will make the little sweetheart heal faster.
