That’s been 20 years ago? It was two pilots, and one was married. I was like… “Um, you’re like well over twice my age? Um.. no.” — on that alone. And it was two different summers. And the passengers are like a blur now.

Yep, I think you’re right, because it’s possible and more likely than not that the cat was already infected at the time of adoption. I mean, it’s a really common parasite in shelter environments with stray animals. Since both cats are being treated and her house is being cleaned thoroughly, that’s a step I always strongly recommend to my clients toward resolving the problem and preventing reinfection. It’s just that giardia cysts can survive in the environment for a long time. She’s doing what I would recommended. Make sure she continues the full course of the prescribed medication, too.
