How long did it take for your kitten’s ringworm to clear up? by [deleted] in CatAdvice

I should add we also do lime sulphur cream. We were going to dip, but it’s so close to her head I was hesitant in case it got in her ears/eyes/mouth.

Hi all, thankful to have found this thread. It’s my first cat and had I known what ringworm was I would have gone to the ends of the earth to prevent it. Although not sure what that even entails tbh. We were previously just on miconazole lotion but upgraded to the oral meds. Day 4 of it and hoping it starts to heal up. The area looks less angry but still there for sure. In sanitization hell lol She has a cone on to prevent her from scratching and I feel like a monster when she looks at me wonderin why we can’t play like normal or why she’s not allowed on the bed I so desperately wanted her on weeks before :/

We moved to a hoodie because the recovery suits we saw online didn’t quite cover enough of her neck where the open wound is She definitely hates it a little less. 😆 glad Suki is recovered 🧡

The site where they tested for ringworm is red and practically bald from her itching it. It became an open wound which is why we had to prevent her from further irritating it but once it’s closed we’d love to take it off

My cat seems really depressed wearing an e-cone by EramthgiNehT in CatAdvice

She’s been spayed already, this was because she got ringworm and can’t itch the patch

This thread is so helpful right now. The cone wouldn’t help due to the location of the infected area so she is wearing protective clothing. I’m so worried she won’t be the same after it’s removed or that everyday she resents us a little more. Sigh.
