I think you need to just disinfect your hands well after handling the kittes. Also disenfect food and water bowls and don't let them mix with your own dishes.

Hi Kelley,
Altho I have not had to deal with it (knock wood),

had it and pooped in or near the water upstream, and
they had no idea this "pure" mountain stream was bad.
