[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]toxoplasmosis is pretty rare and never occurs in indoor only cats. my understanding is the disease can only be contracted during a very short window...like 2 weeks or something. you can also contract it from handling raw meat, esp lamb, eating undercooked meat, touching your mouth after gardening etc. The short of it is practice good handwashing routines, keep the cat indoors where it belongs, and cook your meat thoroughly and use caution when handling raw meat. [/quote] This. More likely to get toxoplasmosis from meat than from a live animal, and an indoor-only, vaccinated, de-wormed cat can't transmit (even through litter). [/quote]
