Ik what you mean, however it is generally only found in younger cats, although they can still carry it. I am sure the person has treated the animals correctly. We have a cat keeps down the vermin and is treated for worms and such and has never carried any disease onto animals...

Shame not to like cats....
Thought toxo requires more than an affectionate rub to be communicated - but our sheep vaccinated anyway...

That is cute, & the Toxoplasmosis thing from a veterinary professionals perspective should only affect pregnant sheep, correct me if I'm wrong but those were weaned lambs & following infection sheep are immune and should not abort again due to toxoplasmosis & as long as good vaccination protocols are followed in your sheep & cats are generally kept away from the flocks at lambing times then the risks are minimal. But there are always going to be people who rather have no risk than some, but life's full of them - we just choose which to avoid.
