I agree with everyone on the butt shaving. I had to do it to Penny once a week until I just gave up, and did a lion cut. No more problems...

BUT I will add one thing to the chewing, my fosters chew on EVERYTHING from cardboard to blinds, to carpet and trash bags. I think it is a boredom issue. Is he locked up for long periods without play time?

I think it is a boredom issue. Is he locked up for long periods without play time?

I too was wondering if it was boredom. Yes, he is locked up 24/7 for 3 weeks now, with more to go he has 'met' his 2 brothers and knows they are on the other side of the door, along with a whole houseful of things he has yet to discover. I really do feel sorry for him being in there so I try to spend some time with him a lot during the day, but on the other hand I am kind of worried to be in there with him........I have broken out with 2 more 'rings' and worried those darn spores are still floating around the house! I guess all that bleach wasn't enough!!

Our vet just ordered transdermal (sp?) patches for all 3 of them, so I will pick them up tomorrow and find out how to use them. This is supposed to be the new way to treat ringworm.....let's see if it really works!

Yep, butt shaving. Or at least trimming. I have three long haired kitties and, believe me, I can relate.

It does get better Bunny! You've gone through quite the ordeal with this little guy. At least he's been rescued from what seems like a not so wonderful environment. I sure hope this all passes soon and your household gets back to normal. It all can be quite tiring.

I totally feel your pain! Although Bella is really good at staying clean while taking care of business, she is really into tearing stuff up. I look at her and think to myself, "you are a cat not a dog!" Not only does she tear stuff up she tears me up. Everytime I go to pick her up she immediately starts biting my fingers. I really hope she grows out of this...my little wildcat.
