Thread: Cats transferring turbuculosis to their owners?

my HO came home Friday with the same concern - we still feed Trespasser outside (I think he ate Clyde) (for the story Tress and Clyde are roaming cats in our area - Clyde was all skinny and sickly looking, he's no longer coming - Tress on the other hand is very well thank you, he's some sort of MC cross I think, but we can't approach him - I started leaving food outside for Clyde because Tress seems to be managing pretty well on baby rabbits and doves who try to settle in our garden, but then Clyde stopped coming and even the most disgusting food was still disappearing so...) (oh and yes I named them - Clyde-the-cat-from-outside and Trespasser-the-rabbit-killer) so we decided to keep his bowl quite far and never bring it in for cleaning or anything. Tress is quite well behaved, he eats his food and cleans his plate, unlike a pirate I know.

the problem I have now is, if one of us catches it from a human, and gives it to the cat.... (yes, I do have a sense of priorities - it might not be like everyone else's is all)
