On August 20th, I adopted a little kitten through a rescue( she’s adorable!) I was so excited. I brought her home & kept her in my bedroom. ( I have another adult cat & heard it was best to keep them separated) the first night home, something seemed off. She had little bald patches on her head & wart-like bumps on her paws. I took her to my vet August 22nd & that’s when we found out she has ringworm ever since, I have her quarantined in the bathroom to help prevent it spreading to my other cat. I clean our bedroom & bathroom every single night, I use rescue spray & wipes since it’s safer than bleach , but kills ringworm & does no harm to the kitty. The vet put her on Itrafungol (1 week on, one week off, etc.) she’s on the second week on & im already seeing improvements. I also started this spray I rub on her through a cloth that’s supposed to help. I use it on my other cat as a preventative. Does anyone else have experience with ringworm & is or was on same treatment? When should I expect her to be over this?
Like I said before, I clean every night. Including vacuuming in living room as well( we have carpet) so far, I haven’t gotten any lesions, nor has my other adult cat. Should we be in the clear? If you have ANY tips for me, please let me know! It’s been super super stressful & overwhelming, so any advice or ease would help me. Thank you for reading!
