Hi, Good day!
im new here, - i just need ur opinion/advice from senior member,
if u pregnant u still can jaga/bela kucing ker? coz what i heard, if u pregnant u cannot stay/play w ur cats.

Hi Nikky !
Actually bukan tk boleh....but better for you not to touch the stools if you do not know if the cat is a carrier for toxoplasmosis (or not)

To be safe and sure, bring your cat to the Vet to have him/her tested for toxo.

Better safe than sorry !

Good Luck !

don't know....but my sister in law got pregnant, my bro sent his cat to me to take care, saying that their dr. not advisable the cat in the house when wife is pregnant...

maybe you should consult your dr and vet as well..

Toxoplasmosis is spread by "Siput air " (Sorry...forgot the correct term) to the mice/mouse ,cat usually get it either by drinking contaminated water (padi field,fresh water pond,mine or drain)or eating infected mice,if your cat is indoor and eating kibbles,this should not be the problems.

Anyway if you are living/dealing with stray cat that eating mice/mouse or drinking what I call " dirty" water sources,then your cat might be infected.

I agree with other forumers,cleanliness is the main step to avoid this infestation.For me,throwing/avoiding cat during pregnancy is just an excuse....no valid reason for that.(unless you are allergic or having ASTHMA)

Hi Alicia,..
im just worried coz..im planing for my 1st baby - n im also dun want to give my baby bulu to other ppl...so sad
