As someone who dealt with RW and is currently still dealing with it (my post here: http://www.thecatsite.com/t/302387/urgenty-need-help-with-my-4-month-kitten) I can say that I made a HUGE difference in my cat's overall health when I started doing Lyme Sulfur dips. If you go to the thread I...
THANK YOU SO MUCH, you guys! Your support and words of support mean so much, especially since most don't get how difficult it was. I'm SO happy!
He's still in quarantine but I'm dying to have him back in the house (he's in an outdoor guest room) so he can run around like before. Hopefully by...
Here are 2 photos taken about 2-3 weeks ago and you can see he's stained from the Lyme sulfur dips, but you can make out the white patch of fur where it recently grew in. Now it's grown in even more so it doesn't look as distinct the way it did in these photos. I take that as he's making...
Update!
You guys, my little Raffaello is almost healed! Look at how much his fur has grown in! Also the bald spot on the tip of his tail has FULLY grown in and so has his nose! His whiskers which were broken off from the Ringworm affecting his mouth area are now fully long and grown! I could...
No good news to report, guys. =( He is still the same but I blame myself because I had to travel and couldnt keep up with his shampoos and dips. I gave him his first dip in about 2 weeks yesterday and will bathe him tomorrow.
I've noticed his paws are looking really dry and flaky. Like really...
I will try taking photos but his body lesion on the side which had turned into a bold spot is still healing but with very fine hair starting to grow in! It's weird because he grew worse on his body yet I remember about 2 months ago he had really bad thinning on the insides of his hind legs that...
Updates!
Turns out, my mom and my cousin were also affected. So us four (including my brother) all went to the doctor who gave us Lamisil. =(
And here is how Raffaello is looking now. Maybe I'm hallucinating but I think he looks a lot better! I've only done one Lyme sulfur dip yet on Sunday so...
Sigh.
Since we are moving into the guesthouse now I have moved Raffaello into a small room. I cleaned it out and wiped down walls/tiles with a bleach solution and moved him in. My only concern (aside from him getting stressed and lonely) is that it's a small room, about 5 x 7 feet. I've...
This is so upsetting and depressing. ='( Maybe I'm overreacting because it's not a fatal disease (not even sure it's ringworm yet) but I hate to see this affecting my family, especially my baby brother. Will he need antibiotics or an ointment will most likely clear it up? Won't be able to go to...
Thank you guys so much. I will make sure to not towel him off next time. I didn't towel him to dry him off but more like held him in his towel to keep him warm since we did this outside the house. It's pretty humid and hot here in Lahore so I think I'll skip it next time.
Also, I am freaking...
Can you guys tell me how far to space out baths and dips? He needs a bath every other day and dips twice but they clash days and I'm not sure if I should shampoo his dips out the next day.
Any tips?
^^^Thank you all so much!
I am about to give him his first ever Lyme Sulfur "dip" and I a doing all the research I can to make sure I have the correct dilution. I put dip in quotations because I have decided I will use the spray bottle method instead. I can put him in his bath tub and with...
