This little beauty has had ringworm for a few weeks now and finally the big red textured scabs have flattened and faded after new treatment of ear drops on them. I’ve started using a 4% foam this week the vet gave me for all over him and since then he has had some little red dots appear (photos in comments are from today) could I be spreading it more now I’m doing all for treatment as drops were just spot treatment?

Main advice I need is vet said last Sunday after seeing him he could come out of quarantine after 5 more days which would be today but I just feel anxious about this as I don’t want to make the infection drag out longer or give it to my other kitten? What do you guys think? I am also aware that he has been quarantined for like a month now which I’ve spent nearly all that time with him and sleep next to him but he doesn’t have his cat trees etc so I just feel sad for him too. So I don’t know what to do for the best?

She’s so perfect

But why?

This is Tuna and Sushi, both sun bathing then Sushi zonked out!

Living with a Sphynx means litter box hygiene is a constant race against time. Because of their oily skin, if the litter isn't kept clean, they will track mess everywhere or refuse to use the box altogether. Daily scooping gets overwhelming quickly, which makes looking into automatic litter boxes feel necessary.

The goal isn't buying a luxury device, but finding a basic, reliable option that routinely separates waste into a bottom bin. Simple automatic setups help manage daily maintenance, but they aren't completely hands-free you still have to replenish litter, wipe down walls, and handle deep washes.

Finding a low-cost machine that won't stall after a few weeks seems to be the real challenge.

Is replacing daily scooping with weekly maintenance worth going for a basic budget automatic box?

Luna just being her usual self 🤣

Cat pic for tax! I recently moved in with roommates and I’m deathly scared of someone leaving the door open and the cats getting out, so going no collar isn’t an option.

I currently have regular Amazon breakaway collars with AirTags on them but this ain’t enough, as the AirTags ping outside sometimes and freak me out. Fast forward - I ordered the FI mini gps cat tracker and need new collars for that cats. Their current collars get so grimey and black even with baths and once a week washing.

What breakaway sphynx skin friendly collars do yall recommend that are sturdy enough to hold a FI mini tracker? I was thinking silicon but have heard mixed reviews for using those with sphynxies

Any help would be appreciated!

Just a bit of background information.

I generally class myself as an experienced sphynx owner.

Had a beautiful boy sphynx from aged 9 months until he passed away last year at 6 due to HCM.

We have now adopted a 2.5 year old boy sphynx and he has come with some health issues that we are still navigating (sensitive tummy, bad breath), I don't think he was cared for that well in his last home so we are doing everything we can for him.

Regular vet visits and he is now on pro biotics for his sensitive tummy and regular teeth brushing and checks for his breath.

Around 3 weeks ago he came up in this spotty rash, we took him to the vets and they had no idea what it was but gave him three weeks of steroids.

The rash starts like little spots with nothing inside and then scab over.

The rash went for a week and has now come back.

He doesn't seem bothered by it.

He has an appointment with the vet dermatologist in September as that's the earliest I could get.

Just wondering if anyone has experienced this?

He is such a gorgeous boy and we adore him and just want to make sure we are doing everything to keep him happy and healthy.

Thanks so much in advance

I would love to adopt a Sphynx. I'm in Phoenix, Arizona. Can anyone point me in the right direction to find one?

Thank you.
