The trope of the “cat lady,” essentially a woman who has failed in all attempts to acquire human companions (which has resulted in ever-increasing numbers of feline friends to fill the void of her lonely singledom) is one associated with loneliness and depression, but a new study has actually linked the idea of a “crazy cat lady” to increased risked of suicide.
The crazy cat lady suicide study comes out of Denmark, and included more than 45,000 women. Researchers discovered that women who are infected with Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii) — found not only in cat poop, but undercooked meat and unwashed vegetables — are possibly at a higher risk of suicide. Even more worryingly, the higher the levels of T. gondii in a participant’s system, the more risk of a suicide by violent means (such as leaping from a high building, cutting or stabbing oneself with sharp implements or shooting) increased as well.
T. gondii was described in the cat lady suicide study as a “major public health problem,” and indeed, the parasite has, in the past, been linked with mental illness, schizophrenia and major behavioral changes. Among those generally infected, the risk of suicide was about one and a half times higher, but again, this risk increased among those who had more severe infections.
Senior author of the cat lady suicide study, Teodor T. Postolache, MD, is a professor of psychiatry and director of the Mood and Anxiety Program at the University of Maryland School of Medicine. Postolache explains that while the link is not definitive, it is compelling:
“We can’t say with certainty that T. gondii caused the women to try to kill themselves, but we did find a predictive association between the infection and suicide attempts later in life that warrants additional studies. We plan to continue our research into this possible connection.”
Postolache continues:
“Is the suicide attempt a direct effect of the parasite on the function of the brain or an exaggerated immune response induced by the parasite affecting the brain? We do not know. In fact, we have not excluded reverse causality as there might be risk factors for suicidal behavior that also make people more susceptible to infection with T. gondii. If we can identify a causal relationship, we may be able to predict those at increased risk for attempting suicide and find ways to intervene and offer treatment.”
One third of the world is currently infected with the parasite studied in the cat lady suicide research.
Seriously, a study needed to be done on this? If my house smelled like cat butt 24/7, I'd eventually off myself too.
Don't need people getting upset about this. Cats make great pets, but granted you don't need a bunch of them.
glad I don't like cats.
I have cats and THEY are totally CLEAN…. so eff off cat haters… KMA

One third of the world's population is infected! Why isn't there a anti-parasite medication for the third of the world's population?
I don't mind cats but not in my house, my dog wont allow it! LOL!
MY CAYS KEEP ME FROM THINKING OF KILLING MY SELF.
Did you ever hear your cat hiss? Listen close, they're actually saying "Killlll yourseeeelf! Hissssssss!"
I don't need anything in my home that eventually can't wipe it's on butt.
I have five and never felt suicidal…puleeze people give me a break… cats are very clean animals. only thing I don't like about is the cat pans I clean out daily but that's a smalll price to pay for all the companionship they give me. and yes I do have human companions as well…this is the most ridiiculus thing I have heard..
It says that it is not only found not only in cat poop, but undercooked meat and unwashed vegetables can put you at a higher risk of suicide too. I only have one cat but I love them and it kind of sucks that they wrote the article in a way that makes it look like it is dangerous to own a cat when there are so many that need homes. Seriously most people are going to eat meat and/or vegetables more than they clean the litter box and at least it is obvious that the litter box is gross and that you may need to wash your hands after cleaning it. Even if you are careful with your meat and vegetables the meat and vegetables can be undercooked any place that you eat out or by anybody that cooks for you. This article was the number one thing trending on yahoo and I have to give the author credit, (sarcasm). This is going to draw a lot of negative attention and cause people to harass and alienate people that are ALREADY social outcasts and ALREADY more likely to commit suicide. This article is already drawing people that hate cats and cat ladies like a magnet. The only comments posted so far are hate comments and I know that a lot of them will be directed at me for writing this but as far as I am concerned I am doing the right thing and standing up for these poor ladies.
Oh gees. Toxoplasmosis is not uncommon and it (as the article says) doesn't just come from cats. If this were ALL it took, the human race would be dwindling…cat owners or not. Maybe it's the fact that crazy cat ladies already have mental issues. With this kind of 'science', you could say that watching Steel Magnolia's can cause depression in people who are depressed, which can make them more likely to kill themselves. Sheesh.
big surprise! lol, Not many men will date a woman with cats which probably leads to their suicide because they are lonely and crazy about their feline friend.
How much money was wasted on this freaking study.
I probably should as a precautiion go to the V.A. next week and get checked..Hmmm..wouldnt hurt..
Sick of articles and "studies" like this.
If you read the post it says the toxin is found in the feces of the cat it never once says cats are dirty so im trying to figure out where you got that info from?
The article never once says cats were unclean. It says theres a toxin in there feces (feces are not clean) so where did you get the thought cats were dirty from this article?
Ditto!!!
What are you smoking? I've never met a man who wouldn't date me because of my cats. You sound like the mental one now.
a cat hater said she dinna like cats so i said what i said you got a prob lady???lol
Julie Asperger No, it only sways the population to think their cats are killing them. Great. Just what cats need. Like they don't get a bad enough rap getting abused and euthanized more then dogs. This article is HORRIBLE writing. As they say, toxoplasmosis is caused by a lot of things. Why focus only on cats. Good grief!
im too busy to be bothered by cat haters and mouthy females.. Im busy taking care of my bois and theyre clean and safe and fixed..its all good
`Yesterday, the article said it was in the feces and in the kitty litter, now it pretty blatantly, saying, people, who like cats, are lonely and obviosly have no human companionship an next obvios step would be suicide. Excuse me, but who are these experts, and who are funding these so called studies? Civilizations such as the ancient Egyptions, ever heard of them? Possibly the most ancient civilization ever, worshiped cats, and guess what? Egyptians are still here. If your study were so true, would they not have killed themselves by suicide? Would not all of us have died by suicide, because there are more pet cats than dogs. Find a cure for cancer, heart disease, and ass-wipes who don't like cats.
probably because they never liked you.. but then i noticerd……..
What's next? People who do crafts are 10 times more likely to be stressed out when their yarn knots up and therefore buy guns and shoot paperboys for relief? Seriously, get a life.
Sorry. MY U key is sticking Obviously in the previous posting was spelled wrong.
Agreed! Why don't they report on that fact? Because it isn't sensational tabloid fodder. This article would have been better if they made it about toxoplasmosis, not focusing on giving cats a bad rap. Every dog I've ever seen has been more flea and disease ridden then any cat I've ever known. Why don't they mention that too? Even the playing field between cats and dogs for once. I'll defend cats until the day I die.
Hey Gwendolyn, it's quite possible that one day you won't be able to wipe your own butt. Hope for your sake kinder souls will assist you.

It still gives them a bad rap when its caused by MANY other things! Obviously you don't like cats. They always tell me the truth, Perhaps there is a reason they don't like you either.
thumbs down!
I've either owned cats, or visited cat owners. None of them even made me think of taking my own life.

Plus, friends and relatives of mine who own more than one cat are still alive.
HORRIBLE writing. This article sways the population to think their cats are killing them. Just what cats need. Like they don't get a bad enough rap getting abused and euthanized more then dogs. As they say, toxoplasmosis is caused by a lot of things. Why focus only on cats? Good grief! Why don't you also mention how many people love their cats and feel they have been saved by them instead of creating this hysteria. This article will not change my mind anytime soon about my love for cats.
I am a cat owner so what are you talking about i got a problem you misunderstood what the article was saying by your comment
we cant have a dog.. our cats wont let that happen..lol
we cant have a dog.. our cats wont let that happen..lol
i have my lifelong hubby with me and he loves cats.. I would NEVER sully myself with any animal haters..
If 1/3 to 1/2 of the world's population has toxoplasmosis, why isn't everyone screened for it regularly? It can cause depression and ADHD. There has been a rise in depression and ADHD over the last 50 years. Has the rate of Toxo infection gone up too? Any warm blooded animal can be a host of the parasite, but cats are especially good. Initial symptoms are flu-like, which means they'll generally be ignored. I've struggled with depression for 30 years. I've had a cat or two (not 30!) for 30 years. I'M GETTING A TEST FOR TOXOPLASMOSIS. Is every child with ADHD tested for Toxo? Probably not. They're just given a script for Ritalin or Adderall and subject to all their side effects and big pharma makes a profit.
What bullshit!
This is ridiculous maybe cat ladies are more likely to kill themselves because their depressed and lonely what a great way to spend money on useless research who cares about cat poop they cover it up anyway.
Oh snap! Better get rid of my 13 year old cat before I kill myself.
some people go through life with blinders on.
hey Lumie…. cat owner female here is really the readers police.. we missunderstand and she BUSTS our AZZES.. popo..
I like cats and dogs. I would have more of them if I could but right now I am not living in a place where I can. t is not because I don't have friends or family. They are wonderful companions and give uncondtional love but besides that, I would like to rescue all I could out of the kill shelters. They are there because owners did not have them spade or neutered or they just can't take care of them any longer. The local shelter here has surrenders daily by owners. Definitely have to keep the areas clean.
Not only can you not read and comprehend a simple article you are a bit of a cyber bully. I was commented that you were saying your cats were clean like the artiocle was saying cats were unclean when i read it 3 times never does it say a cat is unclean get a life bully

I was so disgusted by this article. Basically, ALL fecal waste causes diseases which can KILL you. You should always wash your hands after handling any fecal matter. This piece of garbage is only issuing a death warrant to so many animals who don't need it. I wonder if there's a study about how many stupid, twisted studies there are. IDIOTS!

This STUDY is TOTALLY WRONG! I LOVE MY CATS I HAVE 2 of them and THEY HELP MY DEPRESSION! INSTEAD OF MAKING IT WORSE! I AM DISABLED AND I WISH WISH WISH I CAN SAVE ALL THE CATS IN THE WORLD! iM ONLY ALOWED 2 BUT iD LOVE TO HAVE 7!:) THEY ARE MY BABIES AND I LOVE THEM! cATS Do LOVE YOU BACK-JUST LIKE DOGS! INFACT CATS are BETTER then DOGS if you ASK ME!:) I love my BABIES and I don't understand how people can not like cats or even hurt or kill them! BLACK cats and ALL cats get an UNFAIR bum rap!
Yeah but the point being, all you socially challenged cunts who can't seem to snag a "good" man, have had multiple divorces and wind up being the "cat lady", have a greater risk for suicide anyway, regardless of whether your cat is clean or if you have sex with it. Hehehe
me to! I love MY BABIES! cats HELP me not FEEL so DEPRESSED and I dont have a sickness from them! Bennie is 9 yrs old! get a life cat haters!
this says crazy cat ladys' its probally taking about ladys who have more cats then they can take care of. The ones with the riddculous number of cats 10, 15, 20 cats or more who are not cleaning up after the cats and have faces and pee eveywhere. I do not think it is giving cats a bad rep, I just do think the article is very clear in defining the details of the study…also….I am not to found that they use the term crazy cat lady, but you do have to wonder if the fact that they women are "crazy cat ladys" which the article states they are loney and depressed and propablly do not have support systems, that they are already at high risk for commiting suicide to begin with…..My last point is that the article does clearly state that they cannot say with certianty that cats cause sucide but there is a positive corrilation.

The article rings true about cat people.

eyeing Chris… how soooooooooo..LOL
Welllll I have lots of indoor cats. I have never liked regular clay litter because when I'd scoop, I always felt that it was flowing upwards into my nostrils. Mayhaps I was right! Anyhow, I use Feline Pine which is cleaner and much lighter for us old folks. Anyhow, just sayin'. And I am the epitome of crazy cat lady and I'm damn proud of it!
Chris Innis Agreed, this is a pretty funny conversation. People get so angry online! Could you imagine if online was real life? People fighting about cats on the streets. Haha that would be awesome!
Just avoid eating the tootsie rolls your cat(s) leave in the litter box and you should be fine.
Ok….I have 5 cats……..I keep their litterbox clean and wash my hands. I think that if you are clean, you won't get this. People are just nasty I think lol…….I was appalled though at the christwire.org article. They say cats are demons and they need to be put in shelters…uh no…lol I would kill these dudes if they tried to harm my kitties! They don't seem very Christlike to me!
I love them all the more, don't you?

Tommy Langly, unless you are a female your safe.
I wouldn't want to leave my cats with anyone else–they are my reason for living. I love my girls!
I came across this article because it seemed interesting. But then that crazy internet thing happened where people pick fights on a message board. Time to sit back and watch the crazy come out. (The comments are way more interesting than the article.)
Hmm – I think the loneliness of not having any friends or family other than your cats is more the cause of suicides in "cat women" than the cats are. I have five cats (and a dog and bird) and I don't have time to kill myself – they keep me too busy! (And no, I'm not a crazy cat woman – I do have a family!)
Yea well its the people who let their cats run wild and fill our flowerbeds with crap is what pisses people off and makes them cat haters.
Kiesha Webb if that's the case, it's called hoarding which is a problem into itself. But why fool people who aren't hoarding into thinking that their cats somehow have a role in making them ill? Secondly, the article was mentioning cat ladies, but they didn't put a limit or not on how many or how little cats can cause this. They just said litter box issues. As I've said previously, it's a BS article all around. They should have reported on toxoplasmosis not just cat hysteria.

I love how people go looking for crap. Too bad there are people who will actually defend cats. Julie, I did not read the article wrong. The way you wrote your comment was misleading. What can I say? Call me crazy then. Humans are a virus of idiots. I'll take the feline species any day of the week. If that makes me a nut ball, so be it.
Was sincerely asking, but the dramatic answer conveyed the point.
And this is how I'm spending my 4th of July, Jeebus.
Hahahaha! I always wondered why I could never get a paper delivered to my home. I mean gosh I shoot a few paperboys and they put a ban on me.lol Becky you are great!
had a cat once… will never have one again and I mean ever.
No, not great. Just in awe of what people write, submit and actually get paid for. I am just in total amazement of the stupidity of people who went to college and find time to make such things up to write about. Maybe I have missed my life calling…I have a great imagination and I'm sure I can come up with equally stupid things to write.
Really? Cause I like to think of myself as the crazy cat lady & I would never kill myself. I can't, I have to take care of my cats.

Your the best cat lady !
I have one beloved cat living indoors and out. My other three live outside. How does one get tested for this parasite is what I would like to know.
I don't see a "cat-haters" attitude in this article. The writer says that the parasite is carried in feces–among other things–and since cats generally 'do their business' inside the house (as opposed to dogs who go outside) then cat owners are more likely at risk for this condition. The title may have been a little over-the-top, but it caught your attention, didn't it!
Thanks Kurt lol
this is ridiculous….they are depressed and mentally unstable LONG before the cats..they are hoarders and hoarders commit suicide..animal hoarding is IMO the worst kind of category of hoarder. It isn't logical to say that only cat ladies die at this rate I'm sure bird dog and whatever else on any large scale would produce the same data. Cats didn't make these women unstable they were already there long before when they began hoarding.
This article is enough to make one want to off themselves.
Oh man the crazy cat people are in abundance in the comments section. smh. The article said there could be a connection between cat feces and obtaining a virus that may or may not lead to suicide. Didn't say it DID cause it, or that dogs are better, or that cats are evil, or to kill all cats, or ANYTHING about cats negatively. Just that their feces, uncelan deposits, maybe need to be handled more carefullly and they even have some connection between more dangerous suicides with more serious connections with this disease. But does anyone want to even bother to listen? Noooo. Because their cats feces are the purist of the pure and all cats are holy disciples of the magic cat god in the sky. My gosh the crazy cat people give cats a worse name than ANYTHING in this article. SMH. Let them cat maniacs die then. It'd just do the cats a favor as it is. They can take care of themselves. They're smart creatures.
BAH HUMBUG!
so defensive over nonsense
what an inflammatory title that is really PROMOTING BIAS AGAINST CAT OWNERS…This is about toxoplasmosis not cats or cat people.
CLEARLY-the article states 1/3 of the world is infected- and are not "crazy cat ladies" as well as the toxin can be found in raw meat or uncleaned vegetables.
This is such bullshit! There are millions of cat owners around the world who love their feline friends and don't commit suicide. It's easy to draw a cause & effect relationship where there is none! Some people who own cats may kill themselves, some people who own parakeets may kill themselves, some people who own dogs may kill themselves, but being an animal lover doesn't automatically make one sad, lonely or depressed. Our little animal friends give us "something to live for" in tough times, as for my cats they make me want to live, just as my parents' adorable little Beagle gives them reason to live. Cats rocks! So do dogs, horses, parakeets, these are "positives" not "negatives" – next will be a study claiming adults who read & collect comic books are more likely to kill themselves, coffee drinkers too! This article is hogwash!

I knew a cat hoarder who was quite crazy. She had more than 30 animals in her tiny home. She never let them out. Her house was horribly filthy. I'm totally convinced that she was a delusional schizophrenic (I got to know her very well). I love cats, but I don't think this study is nonsense.

And toxoplasmosis doesn't really effect adults with a healthy immune system. I think this article is not so scientific.
Yes, hoarding is going to present a whole other range of health hazards and mental health issues. It has no relation to responsible ownership.
It implied correlation = causation. It's a pretty bad article, but then this isn't a science journal, it's a rag, so who cares.
Hoarders in general are going to have problems with disease and infestation because of their mental issues, these people don't even clean themselves! But why convince people that their cats are making them ill if you are a clean person and not a hoarder? It creates mass hysteria for no reason and that is my issue with the way this article is written.

But why convince people that their cats are making them ill if you are a clean person and not a hoarder?

Hey I was honest. You can think I'm crazy if you want (like I care), but all animals live more at the sensory level of instinct then most humans do. So, in my eyes, experience and intuition, yes, as weird as it sounds, they tend to tip me off to the true colors of people, especially when they don't like a person. Speaks volumes. It's the same with a dog.
people make me want to commit suicide…not my cats….
people make me want to commit suicide…not my cats….
Don't buy a cat it may cause suicide! Wow…
Slow news day eh?
I dont own cats but I think they are as adorable as hell. Its all about taking care of your pet responsably. Theres a difference between animal hoarding & taking good care of your pets. If you take good care of them who cares if you have 4 or 5. Wish I had the room to have a cat though they are so adorable.

you go crazy from cleaning all those litterboxes!! yuk we have one cat and thats enough for me!!
I know really, what a stupid article lol!
crazy hoarders are.obviously unstable but it has been long known that cat feces inhaled regularly or accidentally ingested can cause types of skitzo, so cat hoarders in particular get crazier from having so many cats in unsanitary conditions inside there home
This is just so crazy. What a waste of time. The slight increase in suicide is probably related to the fact that the infection makes the women feel even worse than they did before. DUHH!
I agree Rena, one has to wonder if it's the chicken before the egg though…mental illness so collect cats or collect cats, "Catch" mental illness…ya know?
I don't think five cats puts you in the spectrum of "cat lady" the number is subjective but I would say 10+
I'm a cat lady…and I don't ever think about killing myself. I think about all the asshole reporters out there, that make this shit up, just to have something to print. and I think about all the other assholes out there, that get a kitten, because it's cute, but then don't take care of it, when it grows up. that's where I usually come into the picture. I re-habilitate abandoned and abused cats. love my job…It's God's work.
love my cats..but one of them pissed on my sneakers and nobody is confessing.
However, this parasite can cause other problems in humans too…like miscarriages.

Several times they are what has kept me from committing suicide; as in not having anyone to care for them. My kritters are clean & the litter box is also. Article says nothing about MEN.. These people are probably very dirty folks. Cats are not asked to be born. Spaying & neutering is the way to stop overpopulation but so many idiots just drop them off anywhere to fend for themselves. Shelters try their hardest but cant cope. Life for all us creatures is Hell. Absolute Hell

true but my point was..its not the cats that made em unstable they were crazy before that! lol like i get that its worse to live in cat pee. obviously, but you were already crazy if you started hoarding animals to begin with
Becky. This article was based on a scientific study that was published after peer review in a major journal. In fact the author of the article points to the lack of a direct correlation:
“We can’t say with certainty that T. gondii caused the women to try to kill themselves, but we did find a predictive association between the infection and suicide attempts later in life that warrants additional studies. We plan to continue our research into this possible connection.”
At least read the article before commenting.
BTW, this wasn't the first study to examine the effects of toxoplasmosis on the brain, like any bacterial infection other studies have shown signs of depression, increased chances of dementia etc. Taxoplasmosis is also responsible for birth defects and death to fetus' (both proven beyond a doubt).
But again the study in this case specifically points out that the correlation still needs to develop a link. Perhaps you should look up the difference between "correlation" and "link."

Lol. Actually divine the article nor the research claim that everyone's brain chemistry is affected in the same way because of the bacterial infection. Although in the case of where I live that might be a true statement
The focus was only on cats because they are the carriers for Taxoplasmosis. The article doesn't attempt to sway anyone, in fact the large blockquote specifically states that researchers are still trying to determine a causal effect.
It implied correlation = causation. It's a bad article.
It doesn't matter how clean your cats are, taxoplasmosis is a bacteria they pick up and it entered the bloodstream. The reason dogs are not reported is because they don't carry Taxoplasmosis. My wife and I have a very nice, clean cat and we had to have her treated for taxoplasmosis. Notice that the article also clearly states that there is only a correlation based on the massive study, not a causal relationship.
This study has NOTHING to do with the cleanliness of a cat. It has to do with a bacteria they pick up naturally. The study also doesn't say all cat people will kill themselves and instead clearly states there is a "correlation" that could turn into a "causal effect" with more research.
Joyce Jackson Actually that is not true, The signs of sickness associated with Taxo in adults tend not to be prevalent, however only several major studies have examined the mental effects, all have pointed to some level of depression, anxiety and early signs of dementia. However that is not to say it is the case for all people (obviously or one third of the population would be crazy). Really pregnant women and the elderly are most at risk but that doesn't negate the findings of a correlation. In fact without correlations scientific studies fail to gain enough ground to move forward while looking for causal effects.

Right, it's a pretty bad parasite. I remember hearing about scratch cat fever as a teen when my family and I had cats. Toxoplasma is caught after being scratched…that's why they call it cat scratch fever. Cats walk in litter or dirt and kick it back. If any waste is under the nails and they come give you a little scratch even by accident you could catch it. I had to stay away from my cat when I was pregnant because of this and couldn't clean the litter box myself. It has nothing to to with how clean you are it just exists. And yea, Luminaries I agree it's a bunch of hysteria. As long as your treated with antibiotics after a scratch keep loving your cats:0) Because better safe then sorry!

Toxoplasma is caught after being scratched…that's why they call it cat scratch fever. Cats walk in litter or dirt and kick it back.

So it's just cat LADIES? Not cat GENTLEMEN?
O the news is full of crap, the blow things and type things that are not exactally true… that one disease usually affects pregnant woman, I have owned cats all my life… I hate the newspapers and all their twisting things around…..
sure, whatever you say
Are you kidding me? Really, Dennmark? Um, I have seen Animal Cops and Animal Hoarders who have gone into homes filled with cats and cat crap and even dead cats, and all the pet owners care about are the cats. They may be mental, but it is usually for a different reason. Now could you work on curing cancer or autism…….maybe make food staples affordable in your country. I am surprised Dennmark didn't link this to the green industry. Use gloves and wash your hands, clean surfaces cats like to frequent and enjoy your kitties. It is like caring for any pet. I am sure any kind of poop is not healthy, thanks for the news flash Dennmark.
Mr. Johnson, many things are based on scientific studies. Things like this are amusing because most people are exposed to toxoplasmosis as children when one of their first jobs in the family would be to empty the catbox on a scheduled basis. This is talking about something that is as common as chicken pox having to do with the potential to commit suicide. Most women are tested when they become pregnant to see if they have been exposed to this and if they have not, they are highly discouraged from changing cat litter. The reason I can make a statement about pregnancy and toxoplasmosis is because I had 3 children and I, like most other women, was tested. Most women aren't even told that they are being tested for this because it is routine and there is no need to alarm them.
So, I did read the article. And I thank you for your concern that I didn't read the article but I had to because it was just so damned funny. I would rather see a study on how the mold and bacteria in the flooded area of places like Cedar Rapids after the flooding of 2008 affected small children and their ability to fight of bacterial infections like encephalitis since that is something that I actually am interested in since my 5 month old granddaughter died from that and not her mother changing the cat box. I prefer my investigations having merit rather than amusement.
But thank you for your comment.
Yeah, stress the cat here. Blame the cat. I clean my hands after I clean my cats liter and I don't touch the poop. The chances are much greater from ingesting undercooked meat and unwashed vegetables. This is a cat hit piece. Take a woman's right to her vagina away; and they are going after the cat lady? What is with the war on women? lol

There's toxins in all poop. Cats get the blunt of it because cat haters like to stir the myths and not the truth. If you have many cats and you don't take the measurements to clean their boxes, you leave to the possibility of getting sick. I have three cats, and I have spent a fortune to keep their boxes clean for not only my health but theirs as well.
We believe that people would me more depressed with out pets…
If you have ever had children, you were tested when you were pregnant. It's a standard test and unless you are negative and should avoid cleaning cat boxes, you aren't generally told of the results.

I wonder if anyone on here ever had an intelligent conversation? The article is stupid to begin with, there are too many variables for them to really say it's toxoplasmosis, which is what they said, not that they hated cats. Do you all read english? It is very easy to get infected with toxo when cleaning a litter box, after feces dries the cysts become airborne. Cats are clean, but they are animals , just like dogs and many people pick it up in other ways. I would suggest wearing a mask while changing cat litter and keep the litter very clean. for people who have HIV, don't have a cat, getting infected will kill you, while most people's immune systems fight it off. Pregnancy is a bad time to get anything for that matter. However, when someone has 5 to 10 or 15 cats, it says something about their mental health usually.

Not many women would date someone as goofy as you with your silly ideas. Really? Men don't date women with cats? That's like saying women don't date men with facial hair.

Hopefully you have already found someone to have in your life because I think, and it's just my opinion, if I found someone like you in my dating life, I'd quit dating all together because I would have lost faith in the human race having any intellegence.

First of all, a "scientific" study coming out of Denmark is laughable. Secondly, this article admits that one third of the world population is infected with this bacterium, and that one can get it via unwashed food and uncooked meat, at well as from cat feces. Anyone who handles animals knows that washing hands is a must, just as is the case of adult humans handling baby poop or any poop, for that matter. On a lighter yet more probable note, could it be that the "researcher" of this "finding" had his advances thwarted by a cat lady, and finds that he, himself, is subject to throes of depression and possible suicidal thoughts? That sees more likely to me than assuming that a high percentage of "cat ladies" are prone to depression when in fact, they are more likely too busy, have careers, and somehow find time to do spay neuter/adoption/care of unwanted cats and kittens discarded by those who have tired of them.

This ridiculous study does not mention that toxoplasma gondi is rare in cat feces and is found usually only in cats that are fed uncooked meat. It's much easier to get this germ off your countertop, from uncooked meat, than it is from the cat litter. If you have one or two healthy cats, keep them clean, feed them and YOURSELF only cooked meat, and maintain decent sanitation in your kitchen, you will be just fine. This study is bullshit.

Only cats who consume rodents can pick up T. gondii, then they're only infective for about two weeks out of their entire lifespan. You're much more likely to get T. gondii from handling raw meat, or from gardening. This article is completely misleading.
correction: infected with this parasite.
what a useless study.
Testing your cat for T. Gondii is a blood test that takes about a week or so to process. Mine just came back positive for one of my cats and it changes cat behaviour as well. Be careful handling cat feces even if you don't think your cats do and you'll be better off for it, plus who wants to be having cat poop on their hands anyway, wash your hands!
An article written by a cat hater. The writer must need a life worse than a "cat lady."

For the love of GOD, stopping talking about cats for one day. It's absolutely true, everyday every second there is an article about cats. It's boring, predictable and nothing special. Cats are the most owned pet in the USA. It's gross, unimiganitive, broad, and redundant. You just don't have what it takes, so the same thing is repeated constantly. Nothing new
this is not for the one or two or three cat people. this article is for people like my mother. she has 11 cats. she has no friends or family that come over. my father has been dead for 11 years. she is also a hoarder. this article speaks volumes about the danger she is in. all of you who have a cat(s) and keep it clean good for you, this article was for the more extreme people. watch hoarders: buried alive. when she comes home from vacation next week I'm going to go there and try to help her.

luminaries23: it only takes one cat that is not well cared for to introduce the taxo to the home. thats why the article doesn't have a number. just like how many beers it takes to get drunk, it depends on the person.
I would have to say that whether or not the taxo leads to the suicide is less important than the underlying warning; that people who live their lives alone surrounded by their pets, whatever they are, are more likely to have emotional and mental issues that should be addressed or the person may follow down a path to suicide.
i was thinking the same thing – they say that the women are with the cats because they are lonely and have no other companionship and then blame the suicide on the cats

Ask a cat mommy or daddy (no one owns a cat, they own us) and they'll tell you this story is a crock of fish!

ive never gone to college so this will probably make sense. this story is more amusing then anything else. I'm not sure how they linked suicide to cat crap but whatever I'm not going to argue that. but it seems to me that the reason they are "crazy cat ladies" is because they are already crazy ladies. you just add a couple cats to the already depressed crazy lady who was probably ready to kill herself before having cats and you end up with a crazy suicidal cat lady. now the point that I do want to argue is cats are far more filthy then a dog is. I have never once had my dog crap in the house. my dog has never got on the counter top and table where I eat and cook at. my dog has never "sprayed" in the house. my dog doesn't claw up furniture or leave funky smells in the house. if you came to my home the only reason you would know a dog lives there is when you see him. he is also not afraid to get a bath. far many more cats run loose in the streets. now why is it ok to have cats running the streets without a license or shots but my dog has to be on a leash have current tags and shots but a cat doesn't. now I know that there are many dogs that do run the streets because their owners simply don't care. but if cat owners want to level the playing field with dogs then both need the same set of rules for them. I am in favor of many more cat kill shelters to eliminate the problems cats cause in the neighborhood. my dog has never jumped on the hood of my car and scratched it but cats have.
Oh Pleeeassse, anyone who substitutes cats for human companionship already has one foot on the banana peel!
Why not use that money for this dumb a&* cat study for curing cancer or aids! What schmucks!
Since my cat Snow died I decided not to be a cat secretary assistant any more.I just worked for him and that was all.Till I was useless to him.
I have a cat and yet, am not offended by this because their is no cat bashing. It is a scientific study of bacteria found in their feces. Also clearly stating it is found in undercooked meat and unwashed vegetables as well. Feces in general is very unsanitary. Cats are just more prone to it. It is not trying to lead you to believe if you have a cat you're going to attempt suicide. Don't be defensive. Be aware.

Cats were not meant to be in a home shitting in a box, yes i agree on the parasite thing, when your pregnant you cant change the box because its also in the air… I see nothing that states cats are dirty or anyone hates cats, but i think that the study should be looked into a lot more to see if a Hepa filter reduces this along with high doses o prozac..obviously needed by the overly sensitive on here.
Joyce Jackson Actually Joyce it never made that correlation to causation statement. It clearly states in the full last three paragraphs that even the scientists have only called it a correlation and that more testing was required to determine the causal effect.

No it didn't imply anything. The last three paragraphs clearly state from the researchers own mouth that it is only a correlation and does not involve a causal effect.
all cats need to de killed.
I have depression and one cat. I did have a knee jerk reaction to this article. I am glad I read the comments though. The article is a bit bias and sort of what a judge says (leading the witness). I eat sushi which is undercooked and unwashed veggies too. They didn't say anything about treatment for this bacteria either. Becareful what you read.
was this obama funded it looks like the same bs he tryes to pull.
This is ridiculus, how can people argue this? This is science, they aren't saying cats are dirty, they are simply saying the parasite is in the cats feces. The cat could be the most healthy clean kitty in the world, but that doesn't mean there isn't a parasite in the feces. And also, they have linked 45,000 woman with this parasite, and those people are at higher risk… it's science and the evidence points to their conclusions.
I hate when people say, "oh whatever the woman are just crazy."
They aren't saying the cats are dirty, just that cats carry the parasite… no matter how clean your cat is. It's not hating on cats, just stating scientific facts they found. Nobody is trying to make cats look like bad animals. I don't understand how y'all came to the conclusion this article was made to make cats look bad.
I don't think this article said cats are killing people. I think it just said cats carry a parasite that tend to make people more depressed. It didn't say every cat, it didn't say cats make you this way. It said cats normally carry the parasite which might affect you and make you more depressed. You can keep your cat, nothing wrong with that. It's just more science proving and disproving theories.
The parasite just adds to the depression making it worse, the cat has nothing to do with other than carrying the parasite. But they aren't blaming suicide on the cat, they are blaming it on the parasite.
Yeah, after reading more comments, people missed the point to this article. I think almost every single person missed the point completely.
Get off the cat litter issues and stop trying to find stupid things to get people to dislike animals for some gain or maybe there is not enough news that day. In reality studies prove cats actually help people live longer and prevent suicide so jump off the band wagon & find some thing else to lie about. Oh btw, my cats use the toilet.
This stupid arrticle is the cause of me thinking about 'offing' myself. Let me guess, another psych doc trying to get more grant money for his 'study' from Obummer. I've owned cats for over 30 years, cleaned litter boxes, and had children…the children came closer to me killing myself than the cats, LOL!
@Bobby James – Exactly.
Amen!
Did you read the article? It said in about the first 100 words that it was out of Denmark, who last I checked, the President was not funding — for cat studies or anything else.

Maureen, the joke is that that is the assumption, or the trope. I even linked to the TV Tropes page where it is made fun of extensively. I am a single woman, for the record, with a cat.

I hate cats so much I have a spoiled one, her name is Wednesday. :/
There is a distinction, however, between suicides that use a forceful or basically impulsive method than those using something less so. And the study cited "violent" suicides, that was not my personal spin on it.

Julie Asperger : true, they didn't mention cats being dirty, but do you know that cats bury their feces with soil after they pooped…unlike dogs that leave their dirt…cats bother to hide it…far from reach….unless one are actually looking for poop and sniffing it intentionally….
Oh good grief. How absurd. Does this author have nothing better to do than unappreciate cat lovers? And BTW, my 13 year old cat found me and my neighbors cat loves to hang out in my yard and now a gorgeous tuxedo cat is mine. They are babies that need love – all strays around here and are not kenneled nor caged but loved and give love. Try it man.

If your too stupid to wash your hands after cleaning a cat box then you deserve to get sick. Don't blame the cat.
What an offensive headline and introductory paragraph. This takes an urban myth and generalizes like crazy, marginalizing and insulting women who quite frankly may have CHOSEN to live alone with cats or have been widowed or who knows what other reason. This is deplorable, infuriating and really unnecessary, and diminishes anything "reported" in the paragraphs that follow.

Why not mention the wild side effects you get from rabies when a dog bites you or have an absurd article about getting the bird flu from your parakeet? This article is ridiculous. I guess men don't own cats either. You'll never hear about the lonely crazy dog guy who got rabies and killed himself. How sexist.
I'd rather clean up a cat box than have to pick up dog shit everywhere! Cat haters can suck it.

Is this just about the stupidest shit (no pun) you've ever heard?! I wonder how many wizards and government $$ went into this briliiant piece of bullshit…
WHATEVER…
YOU GO GIRL!
I'd take my cats (Kasey & Butter, BTW) over half the damn humans I'd meet on the street. This whole stupid, waste-of-money/man-/brain-hours is just another (tired) excuse to go hatin' on cats. KMA is R-I-G-H-T. The only one who needs to kill themselves are the idiot wizards who jumped to such not-so-scientific conclusions. And the lazy, feline-phobic editors who publish this drivel. Must REALLY be a slow news day… 
that is stupid bitch must have already been crazy I have 12 cats and 1 dog have had all about 9 years and they are all healthy and fixed and I have never been happier so stop blaming the cat PLZ.
AMEN BRO!!!!!!
like I said I have12 4 litter boxes 2 dumped daily and the other 2 cleaned daily if you don't like cats fine but please be serious dogs are alot more dirty.
I had this.
Owning a cat does not mean you will be infected with the disease. It is unlikely that you would be exposed to the parasite by touching an infected cat, because cats usually do not carry the parasite on their fur. It is also unlikely that you can become infected through cat bites or scratches. In addition, cats kept indoors that do not hunt prey or are not fed raw meat are not likely to be infected with T. gondii.
In the United States, people are much more likely to become infected through eating raw meat and unwashed fruits and vegetables than from handling cat feces. Source: Cornell University, College of Veterinary Medicine, article "Toxoplasmosis in cats".
Who said I don't like cats, I have taken in two, and fixed over 10 in my area, for they were dumped//// I was saying the newspapers don't get the real facts straight… I never like the news for they twists things around
I love my six cats. They actually make my life complete. Listening to my girlfriends bitch and complain all the time about their boyfriends keep dumping them makes me very happy that I have my felines. They're the best. And my babies are very clean. If you take good care of them, I think you're just fine. And what about the feces – what, do you stick your damn head in the cat box? Jesus!
WHat I did not like is the Headline and the "Ad" for the story……most people do not bother to read the whole article–but rather take the pieces and make assumptions. — had to of known what what bad gossip would be spread by this….I had 4 people call me to let me know that cats were "Deadly" ???? Cats get enough bad press…..
What IDIOT came up with this. I personally have cats, not humans (men) in my home and life because I suffer with pms (putting up with mens stupiditith and bull****. Cats don't beat you, use you, stab you in the back, need I go on. After reading this article, now I want to kill myself. P.S. I am also a vet tech and that stuff about toxo is bull ****.
This is a dangerous parasite that is very difficult to diagnose or treat. the parasite forms cysts in the brain similar to the way malaria does. When the cysts burst the infected person experiences intense depression and schizophrenic symptoms. While it is in the cystic stage it is difficult to diagnose the presence of the parasite. For some reason these facts are not well published and most of the public is not aware of the serious health hazard that cats pose.

In the movie Trainspotting there was a neglectful junkie who died from toxoplasmosis. So, scoop and change your litterbox regularly. (provided you aren't letting them go all over the house… might want to get that rug cleaned).
What about the risk of already having psychological problems, like being a hoarder? Pet hoarding already indicates unstable personalities. So I would say your risk of killing yourself, if you have 25 cats, is already increased, toxoplasmosis or not. – Cat lover, and amateur study debunker.
We first need to investigate the authors of the studies to see if they are cat haters who are looking for ways to have cats killed and justify torturing them. I could say that dog lovers are anti social and don't even get started on people who put clothes on their dogs or take them shopping with them.

Suicidal thoughts don't seem to far-fetched when one is confronted with a mulit-cat litter box on a daily basis.
James Johnson Yes it did, and booze is going to kill so many more people. What do we call people who watch football and drink beer? I have names for those people, those are the crazy ones.
Cat haters are dangerous people, you have to really watch your back when they are around. And generally they are most likely to comment acts of animal cruelty.
The article is not attacking cats in anyway. The point is that cat ladies live with lots of cats. The reason they live with lots of cats is because they are depressed and don't make relationships easily. Now they DID find a parasite that stays in cat feces. That is a fact, you cannot fight that. Since cat ladies are depressed to start out with, and they live with lots of cats they are at high risk for having this parasite in them, which would cause even deeper depression that really shouldn't even be there.
That is all they are saying, i made it so clear. The cat is just an innocent by stander, no reason to get rid of your cat(s). If your not depressed, and you have one or a couple of cats, it's ok it most likely won't affect you like it would someone with 10-15 cats who is already depressed more than most.
The fact they are making is they found a parasite, it happens to live inside cat feces, and it has an effect on depression. That is the whole point, and they said they are going to look deeper into this cause they just barely found evidence.
Hope this clears things up so nobody thinks scientists are attacking cats.
Stupid people irritate me.
my roomate's aunt makes $83/hr on the laptop. She has been without work for 8 months but last month her pay was $8682 just working on the laptop for a few hours. Read more on this site…NuttyRichdotcom.
Susan Winters. No one is being a cat hater. This article and the comments all point to Taxoplasmosis which is a danger to pregnant women, people with compromised immune systems and people with other variables. Being a cat hater would be to say "Kill all cats" which I don't think anyone outside of socio or psychopaths want to do.
We have E-Coli in our feces which can kill if we don't wash our hands after we wipe our ass and then prepare/handle food. How do you know the cook in a restaurant washes his/her hands?
This is retarded. Animal therapies have been used for many years with troubled teens, and even adult prisoners. Time and again, working with abused and neglected animals of all kinds, including cats, has helped these broken spirits to heal and find something good in themselves that they never knew was there. Cats are not to blame for suicidal tendencies. Those tendencies existed before cats ever came into the picture. In fact, I would say those tendencies must have been very strong for the cats not to have been able to heal the spirit of the one suffering them.. Because cats are natural healers of the broken heart. Bringing comfort, companionship, and unconditional love to those fortunate enough to be a part of their lives. I thank God for animals. Journalists, however…
No, just kidding. Journalists are okay too. Even if some, like the person who wrote this article, are very highly misinformed.
Isn't "gondi" that dude from India?
Wonder if that Indian dude "gondi" ever had a cat? Just wonderin?
You have a better chance getting it eating at fast food even so called upscale restaurants.
wow…

James you are not playing with a full deck are you? This article is going to get cats killed and abused. You are either dense, naive or unaware of how many people think cats are here for their sick needs to harm a creature. Take your sorry ass to a local shelter and see how many more cats come in abused. And look at the comments on this thread about the people in here defending the cats.
Great another person who thinks Obama is in Denmark. This is why America is failing
sounds like the cat lady around covina!
Haha! hi Caren! Yes that's me I love cats but I wash my hands after cleaning the box and petting them. You have to pick up dog poop too, alot of people don't that's gross.
