pregnancy for cat owners 🤎🐈

hello ◡̈

As a cat owner, it's essential to take precautions to ensure a healthy pregnancy. One crucial step is to have someone else handle cat litter box duties until after giving birth, as cats, especially those who spend time outdoors, can carry toxoplasmosis. Toxoplasmosis a parasite that poses risks to unborn babies.

Beyond this precaution, you may notice changes in your cat's behavior — they might become clingier and more protective of you due to hormonal shifts. Once your baby arrives, introduce your cat gradually to prevent stress and ensure a smooth transition. Start with separate spaces, swap scents, and progress to supervised interactions. With patience and careful planning, your cat and baby can develop a beautiful bond. 🤎🤎🤎
