The objective is to determine the prevalence of Notoedres cati in cats treated at the "Ana María de Olmedo" polyclinic in the municipality of the Cantón Durán. Notoedres cati is a mite very similar to Sarcoptes scabei and produces a dermal disease called notoedric mange, which preferentially affects cats, but usually occasionally infects foxes, dogs and rabbits. It is a zoonosis and in humans it can cause a mild dermatitis. It is transmitted by direct and indirect contact. A total of 70 domiciled cats from several sectors of the Durán county were studied. On the other hand, the people were surveyed and claimed to have between 5 and 7 members in their families. The laboratory examination of scrapes on the cat's skin revealed the presence of adult eggs and mite.
