I think it depends on the cat! But one thing is universal: cat feces carry disease and infection for (any) person, not just newborns.Safety points to ponder:Keep your floors clean! Newborns turn into crawling toddlers and put anything in their mouth they find! (like cat litter, cat food, cat feces, etc).Does your cat tend to sleep on your pillow? Cats who snuggle and will jump into bassinets (could) possibly sleep too close to your baby's face and smother them.Does your cat have claws? Will he/she claw if startled?Is your cat possessive?

Is cleaning a house that is covered in cat feces dangerous for a human?

Yes. Where there is cat feces, there is also cat urine, and urine decomposes into ammonia, which is a poisonous gas. In addition, cat feces contains bacteria, and in a house full of cat feces, the feces become aerosolized, which increases the chance of the bacteria to be inhaled. The decomposition of cat feces releases sulfur-containing gases, some of which might be changed to sulfuric acid when dissolved in water (as they would be in the lungs).
