Unfortunately, cats are very sensitive to many chemicals including insect repellants so any product should be used with caution. Any product containing DEET should NOT be used in cats as it can be toxic. Some dermatologists have recommended “skin-so-soft” as an option. It should be sprayed onto your hands and then a thin layer applied to ears and the bridge of the nose using caution to avoid the eyes. Another option is a 0.1% permethrin spray approved for cats used the same way. The safest option is to avoid exposure altogether if you can. Also be aware that mosquitoes can transmit heartworm disease. If your cat is having mosquito exposure, then a heartworm preventative would be recommended.
