no signs of ringworm at all. but the ringworm showed up after I got jasmine. that and my allergies are acting up again. have a feeling I might be allergic to jasmine. have no probs what so ever with jingles.

Sorry you've got that horrible Ringworm in your household! Hope you don't catch it and that you'll have it under control soon!
Kitty kisses,
Debbie

WOW! I hope Jingles didn't get it from Belle!

:wink:

I know that's impossible, but I couldn't resist.

I'm sorry Jingles has ringworm. I hope it doesn't last long.

Oh - Traci might want to comment further on the issue of bathing kitties with ringworm..... I don't know if it's something you should do or not.

Traci?

(I'm saying this NOT from anything specific anyone told me, but just from the fact that it can be spread by the flakes of skin that come off.... It makes sense that if you bathe the kitty, the fungus can get spread around through his/her fur. Let's just ask Traci what to do first!)

Traaaaaaaci.......? Oh Traaaaaaaci..........????

(Or Davet, of course, if you're around these parts.)

I agree Susan, good catch. I don't recommend bathing or dips for that matter, they are too stressful on kitty. Miconazole (conofite) topical is my treatment of choice.

WOW! I suddenly feel smart that I made an educated guess that turned out to be right!

Maybe I'm learning more than I realized I was learning through this journey through the land of ringworm.....

I just hope this is a trip I'll NEVER make again!
