I agree with Leah. I would try a groomer forba shave down before trying to untangle. It can be very painful for the cat, and tear the skin which will lead to infection and even maggots. Please just ask the vet or a groomer to safely shave out the mats. Never use scissors! You can (it happens all the time) accidentally cut them which often results in an abscess.

You would probably be better to buy a cat conditioner spray to untangle the cats fur
