I had a Vet appointment today for my Abbi, I wanted to be on the safe side she has lost some hair above her butt, SO I took her in today. It so happens that she has ringworm Because of that dang mouse! (I caught the mice) Hoping there are no more. But the Vet said to go get Cookie and Meadow too, So I had someone bring them in to and he checked them for nothing, Didn't find anything on them thank god. But told me to treat them with the meds He gave me. Which is miconazole Creme and lime sulfur dips. I hope this works The whole Vet Visit and Meds Cost $55.00 All together (which I think isn't bad) But I just wanted to update everyone that knew about my dear Abbi.

I hope she gets better soon and it's good to hear the others are alright.
I would just die if I saw a mouse in my g-pig cage, but I have 3 young cats in the house, so the mice stay away.

Thanks for the update!

I think the lime sulfur dips are dangerous.

Ringworm is a parasite, right? I wonder what the mouse wanted with your abby...

I'm not sure what the mouse wanted with My Abbi! The vet said that it could be that shes a teddy and has dry skin to begin with, Mice are known to"help" other mice with dry skin Pulling off fur and licking them the vet said that there is something in there saliva that helps with dry skin. But still we are not so sure.

Ly:: I'm not sure thats what the vet gave me I am to give it to her once every two days the sulfate dip
