Today, our new cat, which my mum was hesitant about letting us keep because she believes they're diseased, gave us all ringworm. FML

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?

I know how you feel. my cheap aunt got my grandma a cat off the Internet for free and then gave it to her. one week later my whole family had ringworm.

ring worm is just a fungus. nothing to freak out about. the ointmant is only like 2 dollars.

It's treatable for cats and humans. Quit freaking out. 4-8 weeks of treatment for a cat (keep her in a cage so your house is easier to disinfect also) and 2-3 weeks for humans. Then disinfect your house by finding a product that kills ringworm (roccal or 75-80% bleach water).
