The small minority of the people that aren't immune however, are subjected to humiliating, dehabiliating and progressive symptoms--At first diarrhea/constipation on and off,--and depending on the person's immune system--, then onto the kidneys leading to general weakness&convulsions, onto cause heart and lung aches due to inflammation as they reach their final destination in the brain where they go onto cause, mood and personality changes, muscle spasms and headaches, and maybe evenSchizophrenia

Most people are immune to toxoplasmosis which is normally an insignificant illness of a few days duration. It's also hard for humans to catch, the most like source being undercooked meat. All mammals can carry it, not just cats. Pregnant women should be tested for immunity and not change litter because infection during pregnancy can affect the feotus. Otherwise it's harmless.

Bear in mind that he lived in a totally different time when the meds weren't available.

The owl like quality of the eyes actually came about because he did illustrations for a children's book about owls. I get a bit annoyed at writing off this geniuses art as due to insanity rather than artistic license. An unmade bed is much more crazy, but is Tracey Emin psychotic? If she were, her art would be written off as a symptom.
