Kerry,
It's funny you should mention the neosporin because I was just
wondering if it might help. I figured someone would have told you if
it did. It made a difference with the flea allergies we've had to
contend with here. I've never had any experience with rw, (thank
goodness). That's great news about his temp staying normal for 9 days,
keep it up little man! How is his eyesight? Does it seem like he's
seeing more? It seems to me that he should start being more cautious
about high places, but, you're right it doesn't seem like it's worth
taking the chance. Maybe you could fashion him a new bed, or a
different sort of perch to make up for it? I always make a big fuss
about how the new bed is just for so and so. Not that it keeps the
rest of the gang off it necessarily, but it makes whoever's getting the
present feel special.
Hugs and prayers,
Nina

I don't know what else to do about the ringworm except keep
putting the conofite on it..I do put goldenseal on the large
spot...That is what I did with Inky, but he had an infection, too..I
also put neosporin on top of all that cause he kept it so
irritated..Belinda sent some links to some good rw info..and I thought
about trying one of those products. Also, someone mentioned bleach,
but that scares me since it is on his face..I am sure that the pred eye
meds aren't helping any of this...He is off the pred orally for
now...and his eye spec. wanted him to stay on 2.5mg, but I think for
now it might be best if he doesn't take oral steroids...He will get dex
if he gets a temp and so far he has been 9 days without one..as long as
I can keep it under 103, we are good and he will continue to eat..I
hate that I may have to take his cat tower out though, but can't really
chance him climbing and hurting himself again...If he were to break the
leg, we really would be in big trouble...
Healing thoughts and prayers to all your furr-babies...
Kerry and Bandy
