Only if: You pay so much attention to them that you forget to have a human relationship featuring sexual intercourse. Or if you have so many cats in your house that no male wants to stay overnight., otherwise, don't believe everything you're told or hear on the internet. If cats cause infertility, why are there so many cats?

No: Cats do not cause infertility. Cats can carry a disease called toxoplasmosis which may harm an unborn baby. Have your cats checked for this disease or yourself by your doctor.
