Purrs coming from this now ringworm-free household. I know what you're
going through. It took me almost 3 months to get rid of Pua's ringworm
and
I ended up receiving 2 kind of large spots on my arm. Funny, it took me
longer to get rid of my spots than it took Pua to recover.


3 months! Oh I hope not. I got rid of my ringworm with the use of tea tree
oil
in addition to the ringworm lotion.
But I read that tea tree oil can be toxic to cats so I didn't use it on
Rusty.
I won't let him sit on my laps anymore and we both miss the cuddling.
I wear gloves whenever I have to touch him and I am sure he misses being
petted.
The vet also wants Rusty to go back in 6 months for another shot of Program.
Not for fleas, but as an adjunct to his ringworm treatment.

Winnie

All the disinfectant, all the vacuuming, all the baths, the
creams.......sigh. I feel for you.

Good luck, Winnie, purrs are on their way.

kili & Pua, Chloe & Tyrone.
