Sarcoptic mange is a highly contagious parasitic disease caused by a microscopic mite called Sarcoptes scabiei that affects animals and people. These mites invade the skin of healthy cats and kittens and create a variety of skin problems. Humans exposed to infested cats commonly are affected.

Rat mites cannot be seen and a human can't feel the bites, but they leave itchy red marks that can look like a skin rash. The mites cannot live on humans and are not known to transmit diseases. These mites also do not live indoors.
