This is not something to be worried about :)
Plus its not the cats fault. Blame biology for making them such a good host for this parasite.

I'm not worried really. I'm fascinated that it can on reproduce in feline animals. Did I read that correctly? Because my mind is blown.
Yep you read that correctly. It can live in a variety of mammals (us included) but its reproduction is restricted to felines.

Makes me feel like I should clean the litter box more often.
Well thats probably not a bad idea, regardless of the T. gondii.
And let the cats go outside more often...It helps preventing they fill up the litterbox..apperantly not all the neighbours would be happy ;)
Letting them go outside however allows them to come in contact with other animals which carry the parasite.
Thanks for reading :)
