    Hi All

    I was shocked to see this on the news then in the newspapers , I didn't realise they could catch it let alone pass on to humans which from what I have read only happened last year .

    I hope for cats and dogs sake that people dont end up getting panicked into getting rid to pet Charities or on the street.

      I wonder if they can vaccinate against it for animals?

      Most mammals could get bTB, wait til there is a big problem in cats and they'll be a cull, why haven't they tested humans yet for bTB?

      There are two TB's, TB and Bovine TB, but they are more or less the same
