If the cat is your pet then very little. People are too 'germ crazy.' Cats are very good at grooming and if shots are kept up to date then the only thing you may get from your cat is allergies. One should always wash their hands or use Aloe/bacterial gel (easy on the hands) after handling a cat if they have been outside. Also your cats paws are in their own litter box and could pick up worms or bacteria so washing your hands is a must. If it's a neighbors cat I did pick up ring worm once when a child from my neighbor's cat. I only got one spot on the underside of my wrist and the doctor gave my mother medication for it. If they are feral cats (wild cats) then they can have all sorts of diseases and even possibly have rabies. Never corner or approach a wild cat. There are a number of disease that cats can get from other cats. Here is a list of the most common: * Upper respiratory infections * Rabies * Feline Leukemia * Feline Panleukemia * Feline immunodeficiency virus * Feline infectious peritonitis To find out more, check out the link in the related links section.
It is theoretically possible to transfer chlamydia by mouth to vagina, but it is believed that chlamydia is rarely transmitted to females through oral sex. The reason is that chlamydia does not infect the mouth, but only the throat. It is possible for a male to get chlamydia from oral sex, but cunnilingus and anilingus do not appear to be high-risk activities for transmitting chlamydia.
