Sponsoring a ringworm kitten for Tracy

[kimlovescats]

Yes, Kim, I think you were very lucky, as I was the first time when I fostered a Persian kitten with it all over his body. I didn't do any special cleaning of his room afterwards but none of my other cats got it, and some were kittens. I couldn't, wouldn't believe it was going to be different this time but it's been awful. I finally faced the truth last weekend when I tore out the carpet in the isolation room and tossed out the sofa. I'm desparate to have done with it but I know it will go on for at least another month now that Ashley has it.

Yikes! As much as I would like new carpet, don't guess I want to get it that way! I'm so sorry you two are having to deal with this so badly!!!! I hope to goodness my luck holds out! Did you have hardwood or something already under your carpet, or are you down to subflooring???

I'm down to the plywood subflooring but have taped a tarp over it. It certainly makes cleaning up Ashley's messes much easier.

Anyway, this thread is no longer needed because Tracy made the hard, but very necessary, choice to take the kittens to a no-kill shelter for continued treatment.
