So with my other post, it turned out to be ringworm because the vet finally called back! Thankfully he's already been getting anti fungal baths and medicated wipes for nearly a week and will have antibiotics today as well! There's been no real "un-improvement" as the scabs really just appeared and the only he scratches is the ear one.
And we will have his soft e-collar delivered tomorrow!
We're going to give him a bath and strip down the bathroom. Then we're going to leave him in the bathroom to dry and relax while we change clothes and strip the bedroom to clean (we already power cleaned the rest of the house and isolated him to only our room and bathroom). While everything is being washed with disinfectant, etc, and the room is done, he can come back and chill.
We have all the disinfectant spray in the world, bathroom cleaning substances with bleach, all that fun stuff.
And then I guess do this again in four to five days, as recommended by a friend's mother who has dealt with ringworm in the past.
Any other tips or tricks since it really appeared out of nowhere and it's been a week since initial treatment of the hot spots and condition without knowing what it actually was?
P.S. I'll post updates every few days of Sonny's condition. His behavior has never changed, neither has his appetite or anything like they. He still is dealing with some diarrhea issues but is now burying it again. It's literally just the hot spots which is why we didn't take much concern but absolutely do now! Wish him luck too. He's a fighter.
