Should I wash my hands after cleaning the cat box?

Wash your hands!

This may seem like a simple procedure, but it is an important one. WASH YOUR HANDS WITH SOAP AND HOT WATER, after cleaning your cat's sandbox.
There are some illnesses and problems that will transfer from felines to humans, and almost all of them are transmitted through the feces or urine.
So, despite the precautions you may take when cleaning the cat's litter box, always wash your hands afterwards to prevent any problems.
