Answer
Cat urine is not harmful to a females reproductive system, but if your pregnant i would assure you to not clean the litter box because of something called toxoplasmosis which can cause miscarriage or birth defects.  But dont go an get rid of the cat or the litter box just dont clean the litter box.
