Eek ringworm! My kittens just got over a 3 month long battle with it but 2 of my older cats still have it. With my experience, you need to get proper treatment or this will not go away. Plus it easily spreads to other cats and even you. Not to mention fabrics. It can really be a pain if it's...

Finally! I think this nightmare is over with! The kittens have been off their oral medication for about 2 weeks. Hair has fully grown back except a few bald areas still but there is no lesion underneath. We can't afford to get cultures done on two kittens ($100 per culture) so we are crossing...

BOTH of my kittens play in the litter box. There isn't anything I can do to keep them out of it either, because they will just do it when I'm not around. They also do this weird ritual of peeing several times (like 7) in different areas of the litter box. It's not only very loud but very messy...

Can't really find anything online about healthy cat nails, and I guess I'm a little worried about this. I know only the vet can tell me 100% But I can't take them in yet as they are going through ringworm treatment. Are healthy nails clear? Azshara's nails are clear, and she has pink pads, drown...

It wouldn't have been bad if we were informed that she had ringworm in the first place. Cocoa had no lesions, so she must have fought off the ringworm on her own, but it was still all over her fur since she was never bathed. Had we'd known she had ringworm, we would have still bought her from...

Since it's been almost another month, I suppose I'll update again. Azshara is finally getting better! The vet put her on Oral Medication (finally -_-.....) it will be 3 weeks on Tuesday the 1st since she has been on them. As I've stated before this is my first ringworm experience. She is growing...

Just wondering if anyone has any experiences with kittens/cats similar to mine. I've already posted on here how my kitten Cocoa hid for a month. She can be VERy sweet and affectionate. Mostly if you are sitting. If you're standing, she is very sketchy. She adores my husband. I think it's...

Update-- Azshara's ring worm seems to have gotten worse. Her entire face is bald and covered. Looks like the treatment the vet was giving her (Just shampoo) hasn't worked. I wish he would have just givin her oral meds from the start. But he didn't, so now I'm still stuck in this nightmare...

Just an update on how everything is going, because I'm probably not the only one googling any type of information on Ringworm. It's been 3 weeks so far. Cocoa has almost completely cleared up, except the back of her ears are still bald, but not red anymore, and she doesn't itch much if at all...

I'm not sure whether this should be in behaviour thread or Health, but I'm sure it goes here. I haven't talked to this about my vet yet, so I'm not really sure whats going on, or if this is normal. Cocoa, my kitten who is battling a bad case of ringowrm, with another kitten, has trouble doing...

I'm so sorry you're going through this. I'm also going through a bad case of ringworm with my two kittens, and it spread to my husband and I. One thing that has really helped us is shampoo the vet gave us to use everyday. virbac dermazole I think is what it's called, I don't have it in front of...

One of my kittens is the same way. It's almost like she doesn't know what to do. She doesn't headbutt yet, and only occasionally rubs against the legs when I'm giving her wet food. I'm hoping once she is ready to venture out into the rest of this house she will learn a lot from the older cats.

@saitenyo Yes I play WoW :P __ It'll probably be a bit difficult breaking them of this habit, it's not really a big deal, But it's something I'd rather not have them do, or have the other cats see. She doesn't do it as much, but everyonce in a while I catch her and mak a lot of noise to...

This question has probably been asked so much, and answered so much, but my search for the forums isn't working for some reason. Azshara, one of my new kittens, plays in the litter box, lays in the litter box, and rolls around in the litter box. She will also dig around about 6 times, peeing in...

Thank you all for the stories and support. The kittens are getting better everyday. It's only been a week. I can't wait until this is all done and over with, and I can start loving them like crazy again. I feel so bad not being able to pet them a lot or let them sleep under the covers with us...

I remember my parents having a cat that hated store bought cat toys, but loved random cheap things, like Twist ties, tape balls, bed sheets etc... She would eat the tinsel off the tree's, eat our hair ties. It's hard to keep track of things that fall on the ground, or things laying up high, as...

As of right now I've got 15 spots on my body, my husband has 18. Every few days it seems that more pop up. It's been 5 days and the OTC cream hasn't really shown much improvement other than 1 spot that cleared up. We don't have carpets either. Wood floors. And they have been confined to 1 room...

About 3 weeks ago my husband and I got 2 new beautiful siamese kittens (from different breeders) one was loving, the other hid and cried for 2 weeks. She has come around a lot! (Ty for the support in the behavior forum) problem is since she was hiding, we had no clue she had ringworm, and the...

I'm beginning to think this little kitten was somehow abused. She's very afraid of hands and if you approach her she runs into her hiding spot (sometimes) We've gone from her being stuck and secluded in a junk room to finally coming out and eating and playing with the other kitten, although she...

@ Carolina I know I shouldn't stress, and be patient, but it's hard. having lost my dear Shaolin on Dec. 3rd, I'm really sensitive too all of the cat's feelings. It was probably too soon to get a new kitten, but there is no turning back now. I will not be getting rid of her, even if she is a...
