Loss of appetite, dyspnea, mucus in eyes and nose, diarrhea, blood in stool. Limb paralysis, muscle spasmodic contraction. The body temperature rose to 41-42. C, and vomiting.

2. Treatment method

Sulfonamides have special effects. Sulfadiazine 70 mg per kg body weight was taken orally twice a day, doubling the first dose for 3-5 days. The prevention of this disease should focus on preventing feed and drinking water from being contaminated by cat dung, not feeding raw meat, eggs, milk, etc., exterminating rats in farms and eliminating vectors that may spread Toxoplasma gondii. Sick animals are found to be treated immediately, cured animals and animals with positive serological tests should be eliminated in time, and dead bodies and carcasses forced to be slaughtered should be burned or disinfected and buried deeply. Disinfection of the soil surface can kill the oocysts in the soil. Skin and capture utensils should be boiled and sterilized, or rinsed with 0.5% ammonia and 5% Lysol, and exposed to sunlight.
