Remember how we had ringworm?

Apparently 30 days worth of treatment didn't eradicate it! Twitch & Lily both have ringworm(IMO). We have a 3:30pm vet appt. today to confirm it. I am going to get this vet's opinion & attack this! The worst part is Twitch & Lily have been batting at Damita, Chico, & Ophelia's feet under the door, so I guess I will likely be treating those three as well. That means I have to talk to the shelter....that's not going to be fun, either.

Wish me luck in treating them again! Twitch hasn't been her normal self, so I really hope that the Fulvicin didn't get her really sick. I'll have to talk to the vet about that.

This rigworm thing is getting old I imagne. Atleast they are getting treatment and hopefully this is the last time you will have to deal with it!!

Have you tried Lamisil?

or the PROGRAM ? Loki had ringworm when he came to me and that is what the gave him without problems.

The vet looked at Lily's ear....pulled the little "scab" off, sniffed it, & determined it was poo. Oooops! She looked at Twitch's leg, & said it wasn't ringworm. It didn't glow under a blacklight, the scab there not only came off easily(like a wound scab), but it was not the right color, & she *thought* she saw some hair growing back in. So, I guess we don't have ringworm? She didn't want to do the culture as she was 99% sure it wasn't ringworm & doing a culture would be expensive. She told me to call her if it hasn't healed in 2 weeks, or if anyone else gets spots.

That made me giggle a little!

I'm glad that you're looking RW free right now! Good vibes for you guys!

At the shelter, one of the probs w/RW is that it IS a fungus and can "infect" a building... v. difficult to contain.
