Wife's Aunt lost her eyesight working her little flower garden. Neighbors cats had used it for a litter box. Despite washing hands she got a horrible infection from brushing her hair away from her eyes or something. She didn't use gloves of course. I have forgotten the details except that cat poo had a very bad pathogen in it. It's ot just tht or those cats but most cats. I remember being cautioned against pregnant women cleaning cat boxes or otherwise handling the litter. I do not remember what the pathogen is. -- USA North Carolina Foothills USDA Zone 7a To find your extension office http://www.csrees.usda.gov/Extension/index.html |
