Giardia in cats can be challenging to treat but it’s usually not a life-threatening disease. Cats younger than 3 years old are more likely to have this infection.
Giardia is a tiny parasite that causes upset tummies. It carries a low risk of spreading to humans, but it’s recommended to practise good hand and house hygiene when handling your cat with giardiasis.
