It's lovely of you to say that, but I don't have to tell you how nasty this problem is, how difficult it is to treat, and how long it will take. I keep hoping that cleaning and worrying is storing up "good karma," but that's not a lot to hold on to!
And if anyone deserves to be done with it, you do!!!
If only life were fair.
Have you been getting results with the Pets Best yet, or is it too early to tell? I think their white sulfur, etc. sounds like a GREAT idea, but if my vet hasn't heard of it and can't find good studies on it, she won't use it. We'll do the tried-and-true.
I'm going to try to remember to ask her about Revolution and Program, just in case she is willing to deviate from her plan and try more drugs.
I'm not sure how much more my husband can take. We are currently giving pills, drops, oral gels, and powders to all four cats, in various forms and dosages. We also giving sub-Q fluids and force-feeding one cat and putting topical gel on two others. It's a lot to do and remember, especially in the morning, when we're not fully awake and he has to get to work. And we have to catch Wendy, who is still doing her feral thing. It's a pity I can't hold and pet her and help her come around. This ringworm hit at the worst time.
At least we won't be driving 350 miles to my family for Thanksgiving and then back the next day. We've been very politely disinvited because we may be contagious and I have fragile elderly relatives! And we'd have no one to take care of the cats anyway. So my husband gets a break from that, at least (I don't drive). We'll be dining with friends up here who aren't afraid of us (yet).
