Skywatchers around the world can see a supermoon eclipsing the sun via live feed. A total solar eclipse happens when the moon passes between Earth and the sun. Lucky skywatchers in Southeast Asia get a rare front-row seat to a total eclipse on March 8 and 9, and Pacific islanders will see a still-dazzling partial eclipse. But the rest of the world doesnât have to miss out: If you canât hop a plane to the middle of the Pacific Ocean, you can watch it live online.
Cats are not a common source of diseases for humans. However, cats, like many animals, can carry diseases that can make humans sick. Do not touch stray cats. Catsâ mouths and claws can contain many harmful bacteria and viruses. Never provoke a cat to attack you. Do not bother the cat when it is eating, and do not try to move a cat with your unprotected hands.
Be careful next time you change the kitty litter -- cat poop can carry a nefarious parasite that may be much more widespread than thought, researchers say. Cats in the United States release about 2.6 billion pounds (1.2 million metric tons) of feces into the environment every year.hese oocysts can survive for at least 18 months, and only a single one is needed to cause an infection, according to past research. Other animals, like sheep and cattle, can also acquire the parasite by ingesting the infected cat feces. Humans can acquire it by eating raw or undercooked animals that are infected.
