Believe it when I say to try this-"Lotrimin Ultra". It is an athletes foot cream that will stop and finally cure your ringworm problem. You must follow the directions exactly as prescribed. It takes several weeks to cure this stubborn fungus. Ringworm is not an actual worm as many think. Your cat needs medicine prescribed by a vet. This medicine is sold over the counter without needing a presription.

You can go to the store and buy over the counter creams for yourself. I got one made by neosporin that's working well. Any antifungal cream should work. With that many patches the doctor may be able to give you an oral med too though, so you may want to check into that.
As for your cat, take her to the vet and they can give you pills to treat her. If she has no outbreak, then that's all you'll need to do for her. They get the pills every 2 weeks, 3 doses with the meds I got my cats.

I got ringworm from my kitten when I first brought her home. I was able to get rid of mine with OTC Lamisil cream on the are twice daily. I only had one patch of it though, so you may want to see your MD. As for the cat, she ended up having to get sulfur baths to kill the ringworm....and that's something you get from your vet.

Go to WalMart and buy some athletes foot cream and rub on the spots, generously and regularly...You said you havent seen them on the cat..If it looks like she has dandruff...She's got ringworms!

take your cat to the vet and you go to the doctors and see if there is a hedgehog in your garden because that where your cat could have caught it in the first place try and stop your cat playing with hedgehogs.
