Ringworm in kittens?

A bald patch appeared on one of my dogs after my 8 month old kitten interacted with him. She loves chasing the dogs around and having them chase her, but she may have accidentaly scratched him. After taking him to the vet, the vet said it's ringworm that my kitten gave him. She has no signs of ringworm on her but the vet said that some cats carry ringworm and will for their entire lives. Is this true? And is there any fix for cats who carry it without signs? I don't want to have to give her to the shelter. Thanks in advance.

That sounds weird. Did the vet do a scraping to confirm it's ringworm? Has it spread?

Ringworms a fungus, theirs no carrier state or hidden pocket inside their body holding a reservoir of infection. It's completely curable, just difficult to stamp out because it spores. It's weird that a vet would tell you that.

Yes, the vet did did a scraping and she's almost certain it's ringworm. The test will take a few days to come back, so nothing is certain yet. The dog has only one small bald patch on his side, normal pink skin color and not a round shape. None of the other dogs or animals have it. Are you sure they can't carry it without a cure? It seems weird that the vet

Text got cut off- that the vet would say that cats can permanently carry it. I think it was something about shedding spores from their fur for the whole life of the cat, and just having Tabbs around the dogs could get them infected. She wanted me to bring her in to draw blood and for a number of different tests and procedures.

I see what she was trying to say. Long fur does make it harder to get rid of but that's not a carrier state. A carrier state has a systematic or local reservoir. Ringworm is just on the epidermis of the skin and the spores from it float and settle on other things. This is true of your dog as well. You could have the cat shaved if you want to get rid of the possibility of spores sticking to it's fur.
