Description	Latent toxoplasmosis has cumulative effects on the behaviour of hosts, including humans. The most impressive effect of toxoplasmosis is the so-called %22fatal attraction phenomenon,%22 the conversion of innate fear of odour of the definitive host, the cat, into attraction to cat odour in Toxoplasma infected rodents. While most behavioural effects of Toxoplasma infection were confirmed also in humans, neither the fatal attraction phenomenon nor any toxoplasmosis-induced changes in olfactory functions have been searched for in them. The study performed on 34 Toxoplasma-infected and 134 noninfected students showed that the infected men rated odour of cat urine as more pleasant than did the noninfected men, while infected women rated the same odour as less pleasant than did noninfected women. No significant effect of toxoplasmosis on the urine odour pleasantness was found for horse, tiger, brown hyena and dog.
