A member asked:
Can my baby get toxoplasmosis from putting a toy in her mouth after my cat sat on it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No, Unlikely: Toxo infections are rare. It is not all that contagious, so I would not worry about it unless there is constant and prolonged contact with a kitten infected with Toxo which is uncommon infection in the cats.
