Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | 1 month and 29 days old | 0.9 lbs
Found 4 week old kitten on Tuesday 7/25. Took to vet...near starvation and confirmed mange. She got shot for mange that day & has received Imovec every day since. She is isolated in the bathroom from my other 2 cats. It's now Sunday and kitty is much improved & going crazy locked in bathroom. Can kitty come out into living room in the kennel (pic attached)? Is kitty still contagious? Can my other cats catch mange from her now? So, can kitty visit us in kennel? Thanks

Mange may be contagious for weeks and also there is a risk she may be carrying other diseases such as flu, at least 3weeks isolation would be recommended and institute monthly mange prevention for at least 3 months in your other cats
