what's this shit about cats having brain parasites? is it just some shitty meme or is it something remotely scientific?
It's a meme with as much scientific basis as the earth being flat. Dogfags just parrot it here because they're insecure and need to try to feel better about themselves.
Weird how catfags are chill about preferring cats while dogfags always shit their pants in a fury if you mention not liking dogs.

Look up toxoplasmosis gandii my dude

it's weird how in every thread about cats some toxoplasma infected, retarded catfag brings up dogs completely unprovoked
It's not a meme but it probably won't impact you unless you have a habit of touching feral cat shit and eating afterward. Trolls call catfags toxo victims and it makes them super butthurt so they keep doing it.

>Our results suggest that a positive test for T. gondii antibodies does not result in increased susceptibility to neuropsychiatric disorders, poor impulse control or impaired neurocognitive ability… this is, to our knowledge, the most comprehensive assessment of the possible link between T. gondii infection and a variety of impairments in a single cohort.
Stay insecure.

Weird how many anti-catfag threads there are in the catalog right now, including some sperg who literally took a screencap of his own denial of being a dogfag and posted it around in response to things.

Enjoy your car accidents one-study conclusion latent toxo infected
>it's okay to have these parasites, they didn't do nuffin

I didn't imply that it was an actual thing that affects humans as it does rats. OP was wondering if there was any scientific basis to the meme and I was giving the answer that yes there is a parasite in cats that transfers over to other animals (namely rats but can infect humans and if that human is pregnant can cause developmental delays in the fetus) so it's not just a purely mythical parasite that came out of thin air for a meme
Fucking cats are responsible for the death of many dolphins because of their shitty parasites. That enough is reason to ban outside cats.

It was. The type of tumor it is cannot spread to other body tissue (cancer).
