No, you cannot catch illnesses from cats and cats cannot catch our illnesses. They have a different immune system than we do. There are some illnesses that do cross the species barrier. They are called zoonoses. See Related links.

What to do when your kitten is sick?

This all depends on what type of sickness the kitten has. Your cat can't tell you if she has a feline illness, or what her symptoms are. She can't tell you that she feels sick, where it hurts... or even if it hurts. In addition, many symptoms are common to more than one ailment, and some diseases can be difficult to diagnose. If you suspect your cat has a medical problem, knowing what symptoms to look for may be helpful for you and your cat. In either case, it is always best to take your pet to the Vet when it is under the weather. The sooner you do this, the better the chance is your cat will recover quickly. {| |}
