    Ringworm

    As someone who has just started dealing with ringworm and is still vacillating between panic and crying and cleaning, I just wanted to check in on this thread and see how those of you dealing with ringworm the last couple of months are doing. Have you won the war or still working towards defeat...

    Recently adopted kitten…probably with rw :(

    Hi, I'm reach out one more time to see if I can get some feedback. I did spend time reading the link above, and I have talked to the vet again. The results are still pending, but since I saw more spots pop up on him, we're pretty sure it will be positive. She prescribed Itrafungol, and he...

    What was your biggest vet bill? What happened?

    My boy Oxford (I lost him last year - he was the best cat who ever lived) ate a fake Christmas tree and projectile vomited blood on New Year’s Day. Because we had to go to the emergency vet and have surgery, the bill was around $5,000. 😳 A few years later he developed cancer in his ear canal and...

    I just noticed he had little scabs on his paws, and I wasn’t sure if there was a connection. Those actually seemed to have healed though. His nose hasn’t. I honestly don’t know what else it could be. He doesn’t fluoresce under a black light, but I know it sometimes doesn’t. Results will be back...

    Recently adopted kitten…probably with rw :(

    Hello. I adopted a kitten two weeks ago. I first noticed his nose a week ago, but I thought it was from him sticking his nose under the door when he’s locked in the bathroom at night. A friend mentioned the same thing happened to his cat. As of Tuesday night, there was a soft draft blocker...
