No. The smell of cat urine might not be pleasant, but it isn't dangerous for the mother, nor for the baby.

Cat feces can carry a disease called toxoplasmosis, which can be harmful to pregnant women and their unborn babies. However, toxoplasmosis is a disease that only affects outdoor cats. If your cat is an indoors-only cat, you do not need to worry about toxoplasmosis.

Certain kinds of litters (specifically, the clay-based kind) contain toxins which are potentially harmful to humans. This is really only a problem when you pour the new litter in the box, or dig around in the box vigorously, as this releases a cloud of clay dust.

Instead of clay litter, try the crystal kind, such as Clear Choice Crystals or Fresh Magic. You can also try a corn-based litter like World's Best Cat Litter, but in my experience, the crystal litter is far superior. It lasts much longer, it controls odor better than any other litter, and there are no urine clumps to scoop. Instead, the urine is absorbed by the crystals, so you only have to scoop the poop. It also tracks much less (meaning, far less of it gets kicked out of the box onto the floor).

Does your urine smell stronger if you are pregnant?

It might if you change the way you eat and drink. Just being pregnant alone does not change the urine in a way you can smell. Pregnancy does make the sense of smell stronger so the pregnant women may feel like it smells stronger (along with everything else).

Does the urine smell strange during early pregnancy?

"Yes some women have found that when they are pregnant their urine becomes darker and can smell stronger than usual. There a few potential causes of this. Pregnant women tend to have a greater sense of smell and taste so if they may be able to better smell their own urine, even though it actually hasn't changed. Some women believe that they can smell the hormone that is produced and released into urine. That hormone is called the human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), but it is unknown if women can actually smell the hormone or if they are just smelling stronger urine, or as mentioned above, smelling more of their regular urine. Another reason your urine may smell stronger is because you need more water than you are usually drinking. Pregnancy requires more hydration than you may usually need, not only does the baby need water but the embryonic fluid that surrounds the baby has to some from somewhere. The more water you drink the more water will be released into urine, diluting it and thus reducing the smell. If you drink less water, or require more water due to pregnancy, or even because you are exercising more, then your urine will smell more like ammonia then is may normally. While stronger smelling urine can be a sign of pregnancy, it is not a useful test. Visit your doctor for a blood test, or try a home pregnancy test. Take the home pregnancy test in the morning when the level of hCG is higher in your urine as home pregnancy tests test for this hormone."

Does the ammonia present on cats urine have a side effect on people?

Only in pregnant women, which is why pregnant women shouldn't clean the litterbox. Other than that, it just smells bad. Tip: When cleaning the litterbox, DON'T USE AMMONIA-BASED CLEANERS! This will intensify the smell and make it worse than when you started!
