    Hi all, I am looking for anyone experienced with ringworm to take a look at my foster kitty's new spot. Background: This is a super sweet girl, maybe close to 2 years old, who came from a horrific hoarding situation and is in my care for foster (although we are considering keeping her). The...

    Acne or ringworm?

    Hi all I noticed a bald spot under my cats chin (to the right side). It has small black scabs. What do you think it is? Its little bit far from where usually cat acne appears so I thought it might be ringworm? she is scratching it a lot. Any one experienced this before?

    Ringworm, help, I'm panicking!

    ...took it to the vet and then home. Ive got 2 dogs too, everything was fine until recently - the cat ( my Heliakos! ) was diagnosed with ringworm.

    My cat’s nose is getting worse

    Welcome to TCS! :wave3: Just out of curiosity, how did the vet diagnose it was ringworm, e.g. did they do a PCR test? Did they prescribe an oral medication? You mentioned they gave her some type of injection but do you know what it was specifically? I thought this article about ringworm in...

    UGH! The Ringworm clean up!

    ...is about cleaning, so here it goes haha. Hi everyone! Hope you're enjoying your weekend. My hubby ordered an UV wand to see if we have any ringworm spores left in the house, and on me too since I got 3 leisures in total when our girl Skye came with her mysterious untreated ringworm. So, the...

    Possible ringworm?

    Hi and welcome to TCS. I am sorry no one has responded to your post yet, and I have no experience with it. However, there are what seems like zillions of threads about ringworm. Maybe perusing through them might help. Search Results for Query: ringworm | TheCatSite

    Please Help: skin lesions. Ringworm?

    ...waiting on results. This kitten has a littermate, and they are inseparable. We don't even have an extra room in the house to separate them (if they would even let us). So as I think about the treatment, if positive for ringworm, I am overwhelmed by how to manage both of them and the environment.

    Ringworm Blues

    ...separate from my other cats since she hadn’t been vetted, but played with her and bottle fed her/weaned her. I eventually suspected she had ringworm, and had it confirmed by my vet (and got it myself, which was easily treated). I have been treating her with miconazole shampoo and miconazole...

    PLEASE HELP RINGWORM Infestation

    Hi everyone, I’m posting for guidance and advice. I have two cats. One started out with ringworm, I only found out about it once I started getting it all over my body. It was a nightmare I took her to the vet. The subscribed a oral medication that got rid of it. A couple months later I noticed...

    Male cat developed skin disease

    ...to post as @Norachan did, so this may all be redundant. It could be just about anything. Does he go outside? Do you have other cats? If so, since ringworm is very contagious, you might want to check them for similar spots/places? Ringworm in cats: Vet's guide to symptoms and treatment | PetsRadar

    My cat’s nose is getting worse

    Hi! And no they didn’t do any tests at all. They gave her an Antibiotic vaccine called Convenia. Whenever they applied the wipes something yellow would come off, but the use of the wipes made it worse on the long run

    My cat’s nose is getting worse

    The question becomes whether or not this is ringworm or another infection. If it is ringworm, the article from #3 lists the medications given orally and also that often medicated dips are used. Did the vet actually say that it is ringworm and that the Convenia injection would work? My only...

    Ringworm Advice?

    I recently took in a foster that I later found out was exposed to ringworm. She might not have it, but was definitely exposed. The rescue hasn't been very much help so I'm not sure what to do, I've been fostering for a long time but never actually dealt with ringworm yet in my own home. I did...

    Male cat developed skin disease

    You need to know exactly what you are dealing with before you try any treatment. Assuming he has ringworm and then treating with a home remedy could make things much worse if he has some other disease or infestation. You also need to keep your own health and the health of your other cats in...
