Are there any cases of mange in cats?

Answer by  SashaDarkCloud (5764)

Cats can get sarcoptic mange, which affects all mammals including human beings and is highly contagious. Also feline scabies, Cheyletiella, Otodectic (ear mites), Demodex cati, and Demodex gatoi. Demodex is bad because you can't tell your animal has it till the immune system is compromised. All these are very serious.
