Will cat poop ruin my vegetables? I'm a newbie gardener and I've just found out that my veggie...

I'm a newbie gardener and I've just found out that my veggie patch, containing radishes and summer herbs - adjectives things not meant to be cooked - is also the favourite spot for a neighbour's cat's litter box. What can I do? I should also mention that I'm pregnant - is it really unsafe to garden lower than these circumstances?
yes. being a preggie, you're not to TOUCH cat poo in any method... even your own cat!... so getting it out of your garden is a no-no for you... and the foods that will be coming out of that garden are not for you either!!. (or for anyone else's consumption!!).. get someone to trap the cat and dispatch it to the pound or tell the owner to keep it home if not.. you can always lie resembling a rug and tell them you are spraying for bugs every three days and the cat could die from it. maybe they'd hang on to it out of your yard then..you necessitate to give up the garden for now.. Fresh foeces of any generous can burn the tender roots and plants. Here's a site about discouraging them

If you want to set your mind at rest, talk to your doctor something like doing a toxoplasmosis titer -- it's a blood test to see if you've already had toxoplasmosis and can so forget about worrying about that issue.

In these hypercautious times, I'm sure they're going to detail you not to eat veggies from the garden if there are cats within the neighborhood, wear gloves, etc., etc.

Well I don't think that it would be completely healthy but I wouldn't regard it would make you sick... just swab them off good up to that time eating only if you rub the vegetables contained by cat poop 3 times a day
No not really, as a matter of certainty,cat poop will keep out unwelcome rodents such as rabbits, field mice, rats, etc out of you vegetable garden Kitty droppings are rough on plants. Try spraying the nouns with some canola oil and a bit of Cayenne pepper mixed it to grip the pest away.
Answers:    Cats using the garden as a litter box makes other cats do the same point - it can damage the plants physically as well as increases probability for diseases to live in the soil - just as I would not put cat feces surrounded by my compost heap, I do not tolerate it in the vegetable garden. I enjoy places the cat is allowed to poop behind the shrubs and some of the remote areas (he needs to run somewhere when he is outside) but I protect other areas with "dog and cat repellant granules" from the garden center. Wear a glove then putting this out or valet your hands right after (or shake it from the mouth of the bag) but it is sold in garden centers and home revival stores and you just sprinkle a little around the areas you do not want them using as somewhat box and re-apply periodically (after a big rain or a few weeks, etc.) I use it to protect seedlings as economically and it works. The cats and dogs smell to see if this is their litter box and the granules are irritating to smell, so they cannot finish their little investigation and urinate or poop in the bed - they hold to move along and find another place to "do their business" - I've been using it for years and it works.
nah. yes ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
