    Introducing a 6-month-old female kitten to a 2-year-old cat

    don't give up quite yet, there is no set time for it, we have a very old moggy who hates all cats, and even she learned to tolerate our older mainecoon when we used the net method a year ago. If you can get hold of a nylon net & velcro, sew the velcro to the net edges (I don't trust the gates...

    Introducing a 6-month-old female kitten to a 2-year-old cat

    I am going to sound like every post above. But I only just finished introducing a mainecoon kitten to our 1.5 year old mainecoon this week and found a door net was the magic ticket! She hated her hissing at the door he was in, growling. Every time they see each other after the scent swapping...

    cat has skin infection

    poor kitty. Not sure if it has been suggested, but lyme sulphur dip is used on pets to clear non specific skin issues/broad spectrum. Kills lice, mites, bacterial and fungal infections. Smells terrible but I have recently used for ringworm on my kitty as a last resort and it was really...

    Resistant Ringworm

    Is amazing that I have had so many pets over the years without even having heard of RW, now I wish I had never heard of it! Sad to hear there are many cases from owners on here :( I have read there is an endemic in the US since storm Catrina, which I guess explains why every thread about...

    Resistant Ringworm

    Both came back clear on their fungal cultures, lord only knows why my poor old moggy has a bald spot on her ear when she didn't leave the room for months, maybe stress caused her to scratch it or something. Hair is growing back though, plus it never spread or grew, her eyes are still a little...

    Resistant Ringworm

    Thought I would share what ringworm looked like on both cats in the beginning, just because the grey one never lost fur so it was not till we shaved her we saw it! She had grey pigmented skin and dandruff. Where as moo our moggy has non flaky bald spots.. so different to each other. Maybe these...

    Resistant Ringworm

    You poor thing I feel for you. The cleaning product anigene I think is made in the UK, we don't get rescue here and it took months to find something that ticks all the boxes. Do you get f10sc? It doesn't bleach so I was spraying that up walls and soaking curtains etc. If you feel like a walking...

    Resistant Ringworm

    Hi, I have been battling the dreaded Ringworm in my cat(s) now for 6 months, wow is it stressful. In October 22 my then 10 month old Mainecoon had some flaky skin under her fur on her neck, so being OTT I took her to the vet and after a culture confirmed it was Ringworm. I am nearing the end of...
