Why is it not good for cats to be around pregnant women.?

I have had cats around my house all my life and I never had any trouble because of them. My grandmother used to tell that old wives tale but I didn't believe it then and never will. It is true that certain parasites are present in a cat's feces and for this reason a pregnant women should not care for the litter box but as long as she avoids that there is no reason to avoid having cats just because you are pregnant.

Nonsense, a pregnant woman should not deal with the cat litter, but that's the only restriction that should be put on her when she is pregnant.

Hi, No that is not completely true. There is no real problem in having a cat in the house. There are a few things you have to consider. 1.When you are pregnant, don't clean the kitty litter. Let someone else do it. If you must do it, use gloves. And always wash your hands, of course. Cats have bacteria , germs in there .... 2.When you have the baby, don't leave the cat alone with the baby. Especially when it is cold. Because the cat might lay on the baby, and accidentally on the baby's face.Where the baby cannot breath. The cat thinks it is nice and warm, does not know any better. Other than this, there is no real danger. If you have a dog, you have to be careful as well. A dog can get jealous and hurt the baby. But, these are things that people must beware of. That is only natural. Take care.
