I rescued three two-week old kittens which are very infested with Ringworm and would appreciate any thoughts you might have as to their isolation and treatment.
Thank you, D Patterson XXXXX@XXXXXX.XXX

Where on their bodies do they have lesions?
Are you feeding them kitten milk replacer?

Dear friend,

It is wonderful that you have saved the lives of these dear babies.May god bless you.

There is a wondeful product for ringworm at www.revievalanimal.com but if you do not want to wait for it to arrive - you can use diluted lamysil or conofite lotion. Pet supplies also sell fungisides that can be used on kittens. Ringworm is an opportunist infection and probably overtook these babies becasue of their weakened immune systems.Now that you are taking such wonderful care of them they will strengthen and together with the fungicide they will overcome this.

Please let me know how they are doing and if you have any more questions. I am happy to help in any way possible.

Thanks again for saving them.

Very sincerely,

Terri
