"Pets bring joy to our lives, but they can also carry zoonotic diseases—illnesses that can spread from animals to humans. Common parasites like roundworms, hookworms, Giardia, leptospirosis, and ringworm can affect both pets and people. Pets often pick up these parasites from contaminated soil, water, or other animals, and once infected, they can pass them to us, especially through contact with their stool or skin. Children under 5 are at a higher risk because they’re still building their immune systems and may not follow strict hygiene practices. But with routine vet visits, regular deworming, and basic hygiene habits—like handwashing and picking up pet waste promptly—pet parents can protect their families and keep everyone healthy and happy."
