Purrs needed again

Rusty is going back to the vet tomorrow for a recheck on the ringworm on his
ears.
I've following the vet's recommendation. Ringworm lotion on his ears twice a
day,
and a shampoo twice a week. Rusty's lost hair on his ears, but otherwise
looks fine.
The ringworm on my ankles are gone.
If Rusty's ringworm is still there, the vet may want to shave him. I don't
like the idea.
I may ask the vet tech to give Rusty a bath. I always worry that I didn't
completely
rinse out the shampoo.
It has been a very tiring month. I got tired of frequent vacuuming and
washing the
floors with bleach. I think Rusty is a bit stressed out too as he had an
upset tummy.

Purrs for Rusty to be ringworm-free.

So please purr for Rusty. Thanks!

Karen...

Purrs for both of you. It took Sugar and Grant a little while to get
rid of theirs. I really feel for you guys.

Sam...

Purrs on the way that Rusty's ringworm is gone and that his current
affliction is easily treated.

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.

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

Good luck, Winnie, purrs are on their way.

Purrs for the nasty ringworm to be gone forever. Been there, done that.
Thought it might encourage you to know that once Frank got through with
the treatment, he nor any other of the cats, nor me, ever got ringworm
again. That was about 2001. I remember it seemed to take an awful long
time for the hair to grow back on Frank's head though.

Thanks for the purrs. This is the second time I got ringworm. Last time was
2 years ago, also in the spring. Rusty didn't have it then. The vet said my
immunity
was probably low when I get ringworm. So each spring I have to make sure I
somehow boost my immunity. I am taking garlic pills as garlic is a
fungicide.
Rusty had a urinary infection just prior to getting ringworm, so his
immunity was probably
down too.
Since I only notice hair loss on Rusty's ears, I am hoping it is localized
there.
Will find out in a couple of hours.

kili & Pua, Chloe & Tyrone.

You got it. Purrs for Rusty heading your way.
