I am not sure I think this is ring worm
My squirrel usually has less hair on the legs, and I assumed this is from dragging her knees on the ground, as she cant stand up to walk from injury. you can see how the front of the leg has hair, but its just thinned out. that has been there for months. Recently she is losing hair on places she does not contact with when running on the ground. You can see the effected hairless heel and toes. Is this ring worm?? What can I do to solve this?
I my self am currently being treated for a skin fungus. :facepalm

I would guess that it is more likely mange. You can treat it with Revolution. A single drop between the shoulder blades.

I don't think it's ringworm; ringworm is typically large bright pink or reddish circles and the animal would be extremely itchy. Revolution should take care of whatever it is, mange or another type of parasite. :thumbsup

is it Rx only? is there a dosage concentration for the one drop? what one should I get; dog, cat, does weight effect the concentration for dosage?

You do not need a prescription, you will need to purchase the size stated for Kittens or puppy's.

Thanks, you have ordered from here beforehand? I see it's all in UK boxes, this place is reputable to order from?

I have ordered from Joe's - my order actually came from Australia. It is the real deal and the packaging will reflect that. I got mine really fast, too - couldn't believe it came from Oz that fast!

Thanks! the same concentration for the kitten/pup is the same for the adult cat, so I can just get that one and protect the cats as well. everyone in the house gets a round. the dog gets a box too. Thanks for the help, great prices too. :grin3

Were you able to get Revolution? That looks more like mange to me. What a cutie though!:Love_Icon
