This was really informative! We just adopted a rescue cat who had all of this (and more!) done as a kitten by people who truly care what happens to these animals. It's so interesting to go through his medical record and research these things he had to go through to be healthy after being a little stray kitten. Thank you for what you do, it can't be easy. These cats will never appreciate it, but their future forever families sure do!

If you doubt that it is save for you why on earth put it on your cats?

So sorry about the late response, Mari! KZitem doesn't always let us know when we have responses. So long as the kittens continue to test positive for ringworm, there is a chance you could be infected from the spores. We recommend continuing to take precautions until they have had two consecutive negative skin scrapes. Good luck!

I need to treat my cat with lime dip and I have a question. Is it safe for the cats to clean themselves after the treatment?

Christine M yes. You must cover them in it head to toe and they must air dry in it.

It's so confusing. It says on the bottle not to allow the cat to lick it off. Ummm.. How the hell do you prevent a cat from ingesting things? When I apply medicine to my cat, she licks it off immediately haha.

No.. do not let the cat lick themselves. Put a cone on them. They are super cheap 3$ off Amazon. Or just make your own with cardboard and Velcro. Kittens or cat that licks themselves can get the runs really badly from it. This is not a good video. That sprayer makes the solution flies every where. Use a regular sponge 🧽 soak it and then rub it into the cats fur. You have much more control on where it goes. And they didn’t tell you to get into the nail bed. The spores live in the nail beds and it continues to spread that way. So push the nails out and apply solution. Let the nail retract then repeat.

@@BrokenGrandma you need to spray the carpet flooring couch with Lysol spray. It kills fungal spores. But yes. If you look at the nails when out you push it out you see the black stuff stuck on it. Use a wash cloth to wipe it off. Also use nizoral shampoo. That helps to get rid of ring worms. But that ringworm dip needs to be done every 4 days. For 4 months straight. Spores gets dropped and spreads on that cycle. So spray Lysol once a day. For a week then every 2 days on the second week and so forth. Until you just need to spray once a week. For the next four months . Good luck.

Hi how do you test for ringworm is pcr accurate
@elitak510

PCR is highly accurate. A vet may look at the spot under a light and if it glows green you know it’s ringworm. If it doesn’t they will usually send a sample out but it takes a few weeks to get the results so you just go ahead and treat them topically anyway.

Ariel, yes! Lime sulfur dip is safe to use for all animals. Just take care not to spray it directly in their eyes or mouths. Please visit your veterinarian to find out the best method for treating your specific puppies. Good luck!

Why on earth would you put something like that on a living animal if you need to dress yourself like that. Are you crazy? Poor poor kitten, may God be with it.

Great question, Liezel. Our staff is not dressed that way because of the medication but so they don't catch ringworm themselves. This is the best cure for ringworm, which is very contagious! It doesn't hurt the cats at all, but it does kill ringworm spores so they won't pass the infection on to other pets or people.
