Re: Bandy has ringworm on his nose

Yeah, dabbing the topical meds on the individual spots is the best way to medicate for it. It probably wasn't you spreading it, it floats in the air, so just having the central heat on would be enough to contaminate the entire house. Don't worry so much, it's just a little fungus, the same

Re: Bandy has ringworm on his nose

Kerry, ringworm will go through a cycle and go away ON IT'S OWN if left alone. NO need to medicate unless you have a multi-cat household were it can cycle along through all the cats and pass back and forth (where, it theory, it could cycle endlessly and never go away). Vets commonly over

Re: Bandy has ringworm on his nose

Thank you all for your replies..I went to the vet yesterday and asked her to please make Bandy an appt. with an eye specialist in Dallas...We aren't getting any where with what we are doing so I believe he needs the specialist to figure out what is really going on here...I asked her to give him

Re: Bandy has ringworm on his nose

Kerry, I am so sorry to hear about Bandy. My Angel Stinky lost her sight the last year of her life. She managed very well. I didn't move anything I left her food and water dish just where it had always been. So she knew where to go out of habit. Also she could smell her food. Her sense of

RE: Bandy has ringworm on his nose

I use Golden Seal tincture (not with alcohol though) and drip or paint it on the ringworm. It costs about $8, and it works great. And of course, one is supposed to clean pretty thoroughly... wash bedding and all that. Gloria At 02:22 PM 4/26/2006, you wrote: Kerry, The Herd had

Re: Bandy has ringworm on his nose

The oral med is fulvicin 62.5mg/ml and he gets 1cc daily for 40 days. The topical med is conofite every 12 hrs on the affected area.. I know the fulvicin can be toxic to a kitty or their bone marrow..I didn't know that at the time, but his vet said he needed the oral med to help it heal faster,

Re: Bandy has ringworm on his nose

My God Kerry, you can't seem to be able to catch your breath! Are you still treating his eyes? He was the one that you had been treating for eye problems that wouldn't clear up, right? I can't remember exactly what was wrong, is that what's causing the blindness? I just can't believe what
