I'm so sorry to hear this.For some reason, ringworm seems to be very prevalent this year. I received an e-mail from Starr's foster mom saying that her new foster kittens are now breaking out with it, the shelter that she works with has a major outbreak of it, and several other foster moms have kittens that are breaking out with it.
The shelter used to give program to all of the cats to help prevent the spread of fleas but stopped due to financial reasons. Program has also been proven to protect against ringworm and now they have a major outbreak and are quarantining the shelter.

When I took Starr in the first time he broke out, I was told that there are 3 kinds of ringworm and that one of them doesn't glow under the black light. I sure hope that none of your cats or kittens have this. They may be safe since
the kittens broke out after they were in their new home. Good luck and please keep us updated.
