Cats carry the parasite toxoplasma gondii. In immunocompromised patients (people with AIDS, on steroids) in can cause a fatal infection. In individuals with immunocompromising cancers (eg leukemias) who are receiving chemotherapy, this infection may also occur. I have not heard of a situation where chemotherapy itself lead to this infection, though.
