hi your find its a very old wives tale to mothers who are not getting pregnant. but having said that there is an outside chance of exposure to cat litter that harbours toxoplasmosis which can cause miscarriage and/or birth defects but you would need to be pretty dumb as this would involve handling cats faeces with bare hands. i don't know about you but we have always had a pooper scooper. we have had around us since we first got married my wife has had two children who now have kids and also had cats around them. i think your vet needs a warning hung round his neck. good luck
can cats cause infertility in women? what health precautions do we need to take while keeping a cat for pet? . i have rescued a kitten three months old. when i took her to the vet he told me to avoid keeping her in the house as it can cause infertility among women. she has been with us only seven days. . please advise. . thanks shana
