Subject: Tap Water
Posted by Mary on April 09, 2000 at 01:56:36 from 12.77.80.113

Two days ago my glider got very sick. He was eating and playing, but he had very runny green bowl movements.
I rushed him to the vet and he has a parasite called Giradia. This parasite lives in water. It is able to escape through the publoc water filteration system. It is treatable, but you must act quickly.

I now have to use spring water. It is very impoeriant not to use tap water. Other animals can get this from water and pass it to your glider. I would not use tap water for any of your animals. I hope this helps you to avoid disaster.
