    Please tell me ringworm is not as bad as I think it is

    Just wanted to post an update on my kitten. The vet gave me the ok to bring him out of isolation today. She said his spots did not glow under the woods lamp and she does not think he is contagious anymore, but to definitely finish out his oral meds and to keep using the topical. He’s so happy to...

    Can a cat get depressed in isolation?

    Just wanted to post an update on my kitten. The vet gave me the ok to bring him out of isolation today. She said she does not think he is contagious anymore, but to definitely finish out his oral meds and to keep using the topical. He’s so happy to be out and I am happy to have him out as well...

    Can a cat get depressed in isolation?

    Thanks for all of the kind words! I have never had to isolate a cat before this. I’m finding it very difficult emotionally. I want him to get over the ringworm and not pass it to my other 2 cats, but I also don’t want him to be lonely and depressed because he is alone so much. He still likes to...

    Can a cat get depressed in isolation?

    I have a 3.5 month old kitten that has been in isolation for 1.5 weeks due to ringworm. My family of 4 has been taking turns to go visit and play with him. We usually manage about 4-5 visits per day with visits being anywhere from a half hour to 1.5 hrs. Is this enough time? It is harder for us...

    Anxiety from Ringworm

    I am not sure if you will see this, but I have a similar situation and am wondering how it turned out for you? Is the ringworm gone? Did the others end up getting it? How did the kitten do in isolation? I am worried about mine becoming less social because of the isolation. My family and I do...

    Please tell me ringworm is not as bad as I think it is

    Thank you for all the supportive replies. It really helps my anxiety a lot. I am feeling better about the situation and I have cleaned and am giving medicine and feel like I’ve done all I can, so better not to keep worrying about it. The hardest part now is hearing my little guy meowing in his...

    Please tell me ringworm is not as bad as I think it is

    Thank you for sharing a success story! That actually makes me feel a bit better about the situation. Did you keep the kitten isolated the whole 6 weeks? Just curious as my vet said he should be able to come out after 2 weeks since he won’t be shedding as many spores.

    Please tell me ringworm is not as bad as I think it is

    Thank you so much. I am extremely stressed about it and cannot sleep due the anxiety. I have cleaned and am waiting on the rescue wipes to be delivered so I can then disinfect. I have done so much laundry. He is on day 2 of his meds. Quite frankly all of the threads I have read on here about...

    Please tell me ringworm is not as bad as I think it is

    Hello. I am new here. I have 2 older cats (8 and 12) and 3 weeks ago adopted a 3 month old. Last week my daughter noticed a very small area above his eye that looked like a bit of a scratch and we just thought one of the other cats swatted him (they don’t really like him yet). It looked worse...
