Re[2]: Cat (feces) in the garden

     I use my chickens' droppings in the garden, and friends use bags of 
     steer manure.  Not all animals' droppings are hazardous to humans.  
     Dogs and cats specifically, though, carry pathogens or something in 
     theirs.  That's all.  Check out Deja News of rec.gardens on the 
     subject.  A couple of doctors posted really good treatments of this 
     issue.  Avril

I would think one of the reasons is that cow, chicken and horse manure 
are all coming from animals that primarily vegitarian.
