    It sounds like you washed well, so even if it is ringworm you shouldn’t have anything to worry about. But more likely it is just bald spots. Miss Meow had a lot of those and very thin hair when I got her, just because of malnutrition and general poor health.

      same with Allie, she was thin with very poor fur when I got her,

      also, Bill, who is in perfect health, has bald spots from where he and Ted fight and Ted gets a bite in, he scabs over then the fur falls out

      God I hope so. I don’t know if I can handle any more physical labour or mental load.

      Edit:

      spoiler

      The reason I worry is because despite good cleanliness after handling him (repeatedly), I have a sus red circular lesion on my knee that could be from catching it. So I still went for more pats after discovering that but took a Silkwood shower with anti fungal shampoo and soap afterwards.

      The knee is being washed with sulfur soap and covered with anti fungal cream and bandaids until the doc can take a look.
