Remedy Description

"Pregnant ladies should not clean cat litter boxes, because cats can

pass toxoplasma parasite infections to humans. Taxoplasma can cause

miscarriages, or fetal heart or brain abnormalities. Cats incubate and

excrete the parasites eggs.



Cat waste reaching the water in runnoff is killing the California sea

otters. Dr. Miller, a veterinarian at the University of California at

Davis, found that 42% of the live and 62% of the dead otters she examined

tested positive for toxoplasma infections. Miller found the otters living

near major stream and river mouths were three times more likely to be

infected than animals living near low-run off sites.



The parasites cause fatal encepalitis it otters, suggesting another reason

why their California population is less than 2,200, down 10% from 1995..."
