One of our long time resident cats at my shelter came up positive for ringworm. We just had an ringworm "epidemic" where a ton of stray cats came in ringworm positive so she had to have caught it from one of them. Anyways, the shelter, unfortunately, euthanizes all cats who have ringworm due to the risk for infecting the other cats and no really great way of completely isolating them from the others. I know that is not a very good reason, as I have learned from the poor Persian they got me to agree to euthanize thinking there was no hope for him. I knew nothing about ringworm at the time except that it is not a worm at all.
They gave us 2 days (until Wednesday) to find someone that would be willing to foster her until her ringworm is gone. One of the employees would even be willing to come to your house and bath the cat once a week herself, we just need a place to keep her. We all have apartments and a bunch of cats and not a really good way of seperating them to avoid spreading the ringworm. We also aren't home a lot with work and school. So, if anyone out there lives near Kent, OH and is willing to help out a really sweet cat named Nicole, please email me at [email protected] or message me here. Oh and the shelter will provide food. Thanks.
Here is a picture of her. She is only about 3 or 4 years old and a sweetheart.
