No, (human) lice do not live on cats. You can't give them to the cat and the cat can't give them to you. Look on the Rid website about lice facts. :)

Body lice are spread in crowded or unclean living areas. You can get body lice by touching the skin of a lice-infested person. You can get body lice by wearing clothes or lying in beds with lice or nits in them. You cannot get body lice from a pet.

Lice are species-specific. Yes, cats do have their own lice (2 different types) but people can't get it from them and vice-versa.

I hope this makes sense. Cats have fur not hair. Lice like hair. Get it?

No, humans don't get fleas do they!
