She's 11yrs old, and didn't have her for most of that, so she could be wild caught when she was really young, I don't know.

The vet claimed that the trics unharmfully occured in a lot of animals, incl. humans, and that it wasn't their presence so much as their overpopulation that was the problem, so the meds were given to 'bring things down to normal levels'.

Currently on the metronidazole so good to hear she's on the right track.
