Your pet is not even remotely close to the cats risk group.

Only the 0,7% on average of the cats drop oocysts in its faeces and it still will take 1 to 5 days for this oocysts to activate and be able to transmite the disease. If you clean daily the litter box of your cat with gloves and you are not pregnant or inmunocompromised the problem is greatly minimized.

Is washing your hands not sufficient enough? I have a cat and clean the litter box every other day without gloves.
Should be, but gloves will not do any harm. Toxoplamosis is not the only disease that your cat could host.
