Can a cat die from black mold?

In: Cats
[Edit]

Black mold is not good for humans or pets and can certainly make them sick. In some countries (especially damp weather) can cause a black mold in between the walls and can make whole families sick. If your cat has come in contact with black mold please take it to the vet and tell them. I suggest then you try and get rid of ALL the black mold around your place.

ANSWER

black mould (aka aspergillus) is a toxic mould to humans, cats have much stronger immune systems and biologies than humans so it is much less likely.

my cat got less sick than me when we stayed in a black mould infested house for 3 years, if he got sick at all, while i had allergies and chest infections and asthma.

We got out of there, he was fine with the same problems he had when we moved to the house and no more,
and he did die but it was from old age 2 years later(he was 17) but as long as you clean the mould or move and have the cat examined by a vet things should be ok.
