Toxoplasmosis, a disease caused by the parasite *Toxoplasma gondii*, is commonly transmitted to humans through the parasite's excretion from cats and subsequent environmental contamination. Humans can acquire the parasite by cleaning cat litter or through contact with soil.

Transmission routes of toxoplasmosis include:

**Cat Feces:** *T. gondii* typically resides in the intestines of cats, and infected cats shed the parasite in their feces. Humans can become infected through contact with these feces, such as when cleaning cat litter or through soil contact. Therefore, wearing gloves when cleaning cat litter and thorough handwashing are crucial.

**Undercooked or Raw Meat:** Consuming undercooked or raw meat can lead to human infection with *T. gondii*. Thoroughly cooking meat significantly reduces this risk.

**Contaminated Water and Food:** The parasite can contaminate vegetables and fruits via contaminated water. Washing such foods thoroughly is important.

**Contact:** Transmission can occur through contact with infected animals. Individuals working with animals, particularly in agricultural settings, are at increased risk.

**Congenital Transmission:** Toxoplasmosis can be transmitted to a fetus during pregnancy.
