I adopted a kitten that ended up having ringworm and he has been quarantined since then (4 weeks).
The first week he got miconazole cream 2-3 times a day. Then the next 3 weeks he was on oral Itraconazole and miconazole cream. He received about 12 medicated baths over that 4 week period. His room was cleaned/sanitized every 2 days.
He had an appointment at the vet today and the dr said he looks great. His fur is almost all grown back in and no more oral meds were prescribed. I asked about quarantine and the dr said he could be let out as he shouldn’t be contagious anymore.
I am very concerned about letting him out early and giving ringworm to my 2 other cats. His fur has grown back but some of his spots are still flaky. Should he be quarantined until his spots are completely cleared up or am I being too paranoid about it?!?
