Cat Scratch Fever is the third studio album by American guitarist and singer-songwriter Ted Nugent and his band, as well as the name of the album's title song. Vocalist Derek St. Holmes, who had left the band during the recording of the album Free-for-All, had come back for touring in 1976 and was again the lead singer on this album.

A commercial success, the album has been certified multi-platinum by the RIAA. Nugent released his next album, Double Live Gonzo!, the following year.

"Death by Misadventure" recounts the death of Brian Jones of the Rolling Stones.

All songs written by Ted Nugent, except "Live It Up", written by Nugent and Derek St. Holmes. All songs arranged by Nugent, Rob Grange, St. Holmes and Cliff Davies.
