KITTENS WITH RINGWORM AROUND NOSE, MOUTH AND EYES
05/04/2008: Teri writes: "I have 8 kittens with ringworm on there nose mouth and eyes. Going basically into there eyes. Can i use apple cider vinegar or iodine or lotrimin around the eyes? Should i feed them garlic and acp mixed with yogart or cottage cheese? thank you Teri. P.S. They are almost 3 months old. And they are medium short hair."
Ted from Bangkok, Thailand replies: "Using iodine solution or colorless iodine (sodium iodide and potassium iodide) would be a much safer choice. Yogurt and cottage cheese wouldn't work, and garlic might be toxic to cats. Apple cider vinegar or vinegar sometimes work, but if it is not ringworm, it might cause inflammation since vinegar is acid and can get into the cat's eyes. I prefer a much milder solution of 1% H2O2 in borax applied topically. That's because once they evaporated, the only remains is a small borax powder. Iodine might cause some irritation, although not much and can be rinsed if it did get into the cat's eyes."

RINGWORM AROUND CATS EYE
10/04/2007: marybeth from volcano, hi writes: "My cat Pussface has one spot of ringworm around his eye. I'm wondering if anyone out there has any ideas to help my other cats not get it (besides keeping them seperate!) I try to keep them apart and they don't have a lot of close contact (their choice!) but he rubbed on some things before I knew what he had. I'm trying some acv in their water. I'm wondering if a homeopathic remedy that works on ringworm (like sepia)would help to prevent it or if that's not a good idea.' Thanx."

LIQUID BANDAID FOR CATS
10/21/2006: Donna from Winston Salem, NC writes: "Question Regarding Ringworm in Cats: Is "Liquid Bandaid" safe to use on kittens and cats? I read that nail polish method can be harmful to pets. Is Liquid Bandaid a safe alternative for pets? Also, has anyone heard of putting "Gold Bond Medicated Powder" on pets to treat ringworm?? A foster mother of cats said this is her cure. I will try the Apple Cider Vinegar bath on my 3 month old kitten who has ringworm. Our vet has just put her on liquid drops but since the culture took 7 days to develop the ringworm has rapidly spread. I am fearful of this oral medications and the potential side effects of this medication. Please advise."
Ted from Bangkok, Thailand replies: "No. The ingredients for liquid bandaid is acetone and alcohol. It appears that cats are quite sensitive to the acetone content of liquid bandaid. Washing the cats in a saturated solution of borax in vinegar would be a more safer alternative. The key is frequent application without rinse. In some cases liquid bandaid appears to spread the ringworm fungus especially during rainy season or when the weather is wet. The bandaid sometimes do not stick well and if the cat scratches the area, this creates extra problem. Therefore the key to treatment is using borax and ACV or vinegar would solve the itchiness and the killing of the ringworm all at once. Liquid bandaid does not appear to be effective."
