Skywatchers around the world can see a supermoon eclipsing the sun via live feed. A total solar eclipse happens when the moon passes between Earth and the sun. Lucky skywatchers in Southeast Asia get a rare front-row seat to a total eclipse on March 8 and 9, and Pacific islanders will see a still-dazzling partial eclipse. But the rest of the world doesnât have to miss out: If you canât hop a plane to the middle of the Pacific Ocean, you can watch it live online.
Cats are not a common source of diseases for humans. However, cats, like many animals, can carry diseases that can make humans sick. Do not touch stray cats. Catsâ mouths and claws can contain many harmful bacteria and viruses. Never provoke a cat to attack you. Do not bother the cat when it is eating, and do not try to move a cat with your unprotected hands.

Roundworms (Ancylostoma sp.) and cat hookworms (Toxocara cati) are two intestinal parasites that can pass from cats to humans. Other zoonotic intestinal parasites include tapeworms and Toxoplasmosis gondii and Giardia species. Good hygiene helps prevent intestinal parasites in cats from infecting humans.
