I will pass that along to him, along with everything else. Thank you so much! :)

I really appreciate all the replies to this. This is all very useful information. :) I'll have him do that the next time he takes the cat to the vet. I think he is due for his shots pretty soon, so I think he's going anyway. We have one animal hospital around here, but I'm unsure what kind of...

Thanks for your replies, for some reason, i didn't get an email notifying me that there were replies, so forgive my lateness. I was unaware that they made larger cones, but I will mention it to him. I think he is still putting the cream on, but the cat still rips it bloody every single day. I...

Hi, I was wondering if anyone here had ever experienced something like this. A friend of mine has a kitty that likes to rub his upper eyelid against things furiously to the point where it's rubbed bloody/raw. It's like a stress/nervous thing. In the past, the vet gave him a steroid shot and it...

Thank you so much for your reply. I have been washing myself with head and shoulders actually, which has anti fungal properties. I've also been wearing gloves when cleaning. The cat has a tiny dot on his nose, I'm going way overboard with this and I know I am. I'm a bit of a germophobe with OCD...

This whole thing has been a comedy of errors. The original cat who gave me cat the ringworm is also currently very ill (he's my neighbor's cat), so we've got that worry on top of everything else. I know it will pass, but it seems like this is all going to take an eternity!

I think I'm going to try to take the stuff to my dad's apartment if we can't get it fixed, my dad and my husband are currently at the appliance store looking for a new one. When it rains, it pours, lol. The door got stuck in the locked position and they had to take the door apart to get the...

Well, I can't make this up... my washing machine broke and now I can't clean anything that i need to in order to deal with the ringworm stuff. My clothes are stuck in my washing machine and I'm ready to just give up. Also, his nose seems to be a little red in the area they put the cream on. I...

Thank you so much. The worst part about this cat is that he sticks his nose in everything. He was just on my lap and I had to keep him from shoving his nose in my face. I'm finding ways to interact with him without touching the infected area, though, 'cause I can't just not interact with him for...

Thank you. I'm going to try to clean it today. I'm on day two of all of this, I have 9 more days to go of his medicine. It seems like an eternity. I'm overreacting, this is not a bad case, but this is going to be a long 9 days, that's for sure.

Well, that makes one of us, lol, but thank you. I just ... I have OCD, so it's a bit hard for me to just relax about this. I can only do so much as far as cleaning goes, but I'm trying my best. I have soft carrier for him to take him to the vet, I have no idea how to clean that. Does anyone...

I do have a petco, I can look into it. I know I'm making a whole lot out of this, and that this could be a LOT worse, but this is my first time dealing with this and I just don't know how to handle it. Like I said, the vet was really chill about it and seemed like it was not really a huge deal...

I read that article earlier, it has a lot of helpful tips, but thank you for sharing it again, I will keep referring to it. I'm just losing my mind about it. I don't know if I'm doing enough, but I can't have this upend my life. Right now, I've put blankets down on some of the chairs so that he...

Hi, I took my cat to the vet today and they told me he has a very minor case of ringworm. It is so minor they weren't even going to give me any medication for it, but they gave me a cream as a precaution. The cat that infected him does not live here, and he is not allowed out of the house...

Another update on this thread. It was definitely ringworm and my cat caught it. He has a single dot on his nose. The vet said she wasn't even going to treat him for it, but she gave me a cream and told me to put it on for 10 days, three times a day, just as a precaution. I am deep cleaning my...
