Today, our new cat, which my mum was hesitant about letting us keep because she believes they're diseased, gave us all ringworm. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I let my new cat sleep in bed with me. It was cute until she wiped a tapeworm onto my arm. FML
Today, I found out that people can get ringworm from cats. I found out because I have ringworm. I don't have a cat. Then I remembered I helped a friend move about two weeks ago, and spent the night sharing a bed with her cat. That's the last time I ever help her move. FML
Today, my sister found out she contracted ringworm and scabies from her best friend's rescued kittens. The entire family now has to be treated to prevent it from spreading. There are 7 people in our house and none of us have health insurance. FML
Today, the abandoned cat that I took in for the night and during bad weather seems to have spread fleas around my house. They're everywhere. FML
Today, my mom accused my cat of being a "manipulator", and said that we should get rid of him. FML
Today, I caught my mom eating cat biscuits. We don't have a cat. FML
Today, since getting the new kitten that only I wanted, it has scratched me and peed on my socks, my side of the bed and my laptop. It loves my husband though, who was against getting a cat at all. FML
Today, I'm feeling extremely sick and itchy. I'd bought rats as pets to help with my anxiety, and they gave me ringworm. I now have ringworm in about nine places on my body, including my face. I don’t know which one is worse, being dizzy from the medication or the itching. I’m feeling more anxious than ever. FML
Today, after I foolishly agreed to look after my mom's cat while she went on holiday, I woke up with her on my chest, and she must've been making biscuits on me in her sleep for hours because one of my boobs looks like it had an infectious skin disease that I tried to cut off with a grinder. FML
Today, my mom decided to only speak to me through our pet cat. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Learned the lesson long time ago: Just because a pussy looks healthy on the outside,doesn't mean it is! ; )

If a cat has ringworm...you can easily tell. ydi for not getting your new cat checked by a vet...or dewormed for that matter.

But worming treatments don't work on ringworm because it's not a worm..

it's NOT a friggin worm!

Yes but if its a younger cat it may have FIV which is treated with a vaccine, FIV is the leading cause of ringworm, it triggers it. That's why i mentioned the vaccines. I know its a fungal infection, its like a rash & if not properly treated it gives a cat hell. Point being if OP would've just taken the cat to the vet when they 1st got it, before letting everyone in their household touch the cat it could've easily been avoided, as a Vet would notice ringworm on a cat right away..since they do a full body exam when you take your pet to get a check up

JSYK you said "dewormed" not "vaccinated".
LizzJizz 16
Thats why cats dogs puppies& kittens have to be dewormed/vaccinated asap. They have all kinds of parasites & viruses living insideof them that can be triggered at anytime for no reason. Such as Parvo/feline leukemia/kennel cough/ FIV

wouldn't do much good, considering ringworm is a fungus, not an actual worm.

ringworm has nothing to do with being dewormed.
