    Ringworm update

    NO. They were scheduled for pre-op EOM and surgery last week. Given the current situation the vet advised strongly against it - which I 100% agree. In fear of the ringworm going to the incisions. Yep, I worry about the spraying too. Just take one day @ a time and try your best to not worry about...

    Ringworm update

    Hard to say- More than likely I would suspect that my second kitty got it from the first kitty when he was on the compound treatment for 2 and half weeks. The living room area is very small and I disinfect & sanitize daily- but again all very possible. It take about 2-3 week for ringworm...

    Ringworm update

    Of course! From what I was told by the vet specialist is Ringworm is a slow growing fungus and slow resolving fungus. It takes time for the lesions to start and time for the lesions to heal. This could be why you are seeing new lesions pop up- until the treatment kicks in. ( 3-weeks?? I think...

    Monitoring Water Intake

    This thread just gave me the answer I was looking for! This site is so helpful. I was so worried about water intake as my little guys would rather play in it then drink it. So, I too now feed wet and add water to the food @ every feeding. I have a water bottle that I fill up start of the day...

    First I am so sorry you have to go through! Take comfort in knowing you are not going @ this alone. I too am currently dealing with a kitten we adopted in July that has ringworm ( diagnosed in mid- August) and now our other kitty has the ringworm ( diagnosed this past Sunday) I'll be honest when...

    Drinking Out Of "water Bottle"

    Well, I think I may have figured this out. I put a little bit of their dry kibble in the water bowl. They try to eat the kibble and also then drink H20 @ the same time. They are happy and Mamma's happy. So far success no tipped bowls. Ha!

    Drinking Out Of "water Bottle"

    Thank you! Yes, Bodhi the Brown Tabby is a little stinker! He is most def the instigator. Where as Elwood the White Tabby is Mr. Chill. Yes, I have done the fountain -the issue is the wet paws that create such a mess. Agreed, trickling water doesn't seem very ideal. I do greatly appreciate your...

    Maine Coon Kitten W/ Ringworm

    Blood Test came back and all is good there-sigh of relief. The culture did not show any secondary bacterial infection just confirmed the ringworm and it is the common ringworm. The Vet took him off pulse and opted to do 30 days Oral Treatment everyday, adjusted his meds to higher dosage, and...

    Maine Coon Kitten W/ Ringworm

    My thoughts exactly! Give me the facts so we can resolve this monster. They also opted to do a full 21 days of the Oral Treatment versus the 1 week on 1 week off to knock it down... They did take a blood test to see if there is any underlying immune issues. We are very fortunate to have such...

    Need Help With Cat Meowing At Night

    I second the TV or any noise stimuli. My baby Jewel when she was around your little guys age -same deal. I opted for soft piano music in the background and free feeding. The Piano Music carried her through her entire 18 years of life. Whenever stressed or nervous Piano Musics played. We also...
