It is generally accepted that a cat can infect a person with skin diseases or share parasites.
But not everything is so simple and harmless. There are cases when a couple of pills and some green stuff won't do the trick, and the disease progresses covertly, but not without consequences for the body.
Researchers at Charles University (Prague, Czech Republic) have concluded that a cat can infect a person with toxoplasmosis.
The results of the work were published in the journal Folia Parasitologica.
Humans are most often infected with toxoplasmosis through contact with cats.
But the disease proceeds unnoticed or with symptoms that are mostly confused with the flu.
The insidiousness of the disease is that people who have had toxoplasmosis are prone to mental disorders.
There is a decline in cognitive abilities, and it is the parasites that are to blame, not the consequences of the disease.
In this case, the pathogens remain in the body for a long time.
