Cats either have toxo or they don't, take you cats to the vet and have them tested, if they are negative, no worries, don't feed them raw meat while you are preggo or they could become infected. Likewise, don't HANDLE raw meat either without gloves and don't walk around outside in the yard or gardens with bare feet or open sandals. And, lastly, if your cats are positive, then just wear good long rubber (dishwashing type) gloves when you clean the litterboxes, at least until their treatment is done and they test negative. Though certainly, wearing gloves while doing the litterboxes would be extra careful even for negative cats, so you may just want to wear the gloves regardless of their test results. You're actually MORE likely to get toxo from meat and walking barefoot than from a cat box. FELV has absolutely NO effect on toxo, and makes no difference at all. ALL cats should be tested or presumed positive when human pregnancy is concerned, even FELV negative cats.
