    9 Month Old Cat With Cryptosporidium - Please help!

    Also, as a side note. Azithromycin actually made my cats poo worse for a while shortly after starting it. Tylosin did the same thing. I had to titrate up slowly (over a couple days) to minimize side effects.

    My kitten tested positive for Cryptosporidium. Has anyone gone through this? What steps should you take to eliminate it from the environment? What medications did you end up giving your kitty? How long did it take to cure? Any recommendation would be amazing! Stressed cat mama.
