Hi everybody!
Upon suggestion, I'm asking this question here (it is also in the New Cats...)section. I am wondering - is there anybody on here who has managed to get pregnant and have children while having many indoor cats? We have six of them, and although children are not an immediate goal, my husband and I are thinking about it! If I were to get pregnant, would I have an increased risk for toxoplasmosis (I don't do ANY litter stuff, husband does) or any other disease? And, will small children be more likely to get sick? Or, will my furbabies freak out and start peeing everywhere?
I would hate to forgo having human children because of my plethora of cats! Anyone with any info, please fill me in - I'd be so appreciative!
Just so I don't look completely crazy, three of them are rescues from near death, and we know how they can crawl into your heart...
Thanks!
