==Prevention==
''Toxoplasma'' infection could be controlled/prevented by testing for seropositive cats using [[ELISA testing|ELISA]] and [[Toxoplasmosis - Small Animal#Treatment|treating]]. Human toxoplasmosis can be prevented by avoiding oocyst ingestion (safe handling of cat litter/faeces), tissue cyst ingestion (appropriate food preparation). Pregnant women should not be in contact with aborting sheep or cat faeces. Sheep can be vaccinated or given medicated feed.
