Can pregnant women have cats?

Pregnant women should not keep cats during pregnancy. Women should have fewer pets during pregnancy, because pets may carry certain germs and parasites inside and outside the body, if the pet accidentally infects the pregnant woman with germs, parasites or other harmful substances, it is very likely to affect the growth and development of the fetus, and in serious cases, it may cause miscarriage. For animals like cats, because of their sharp claws, if they are not too emotionally stable they may hurt the pregnant woman, and if they scratch the skin they need to be vaccinated against rabies, which may adversely affect the pregnant woman and the fetus, and also cause psychological stress or fright to the pregnant woman, which is also not good for the survival and development of the fetus. In addition, the cat droppings and hair that fall off the body may cause damage to the pregnant woman’s living environment, which may be detrimental to the growth and development of the fetus if not properly taken care of and handled.
