I've wondered about that a lot of times myself. But then I went up to my grandma's house and learned that not only do cats NOT get poison oak or poison ivy, but that other mamals don't seem to get it either. It semms to have something to do with a chemical in their fur. So, no cats do not get poison oak or poison ivy. So you have nothing to worry about.

Does burning dead poison oak in wood stove put off a poison gas?

Burning poison oak (or poison ivy or poison sumac) can release the urushiol, which is the oily substance in poison oak that many (but not all) people have strong reactions to. Worse, the urushiol will be carried in the smoke from the fire, and it will get into the lungs of anyone who breathes in the smoke. If you think that having poison oak on your arms and legs is bad, just imagine having that poison oak reaction on the inside of your lungs.Bottom line: do not ever burn poison oak.
