TITLE - The young cat has multiple circular wounds. Is it ringworm?

INTRODUCTION
Setting - Singapore apartments


What is the problem?  - Skin lesions - many circular ones from  ... cm to ... cm across in all 4 limbs.

Infected wounds do not heal as the cat keeps licking them. Need pain killers and anti-inflammatory medication

Circular pattern indicates incisor and canine teeth bite marks from another cat

How is the problem diagnosed?
The wounds look very much like ringworm. (INTERN - to define ringworm and show some images of ringworm)

One example of ringworm in a kitten

Feline ringworm

Ringworm also infects dogs

Laboratory tests to aid diagnosis

MIDDLE
How to resolve the problem?
Treatment depends on the cause or causes.
1. Traumatic injuries from bites likely as there are two other cats in the home. What gender and age are they? Litter box sharing? Food bowl sharing? Any other significant issues like bullying? Is this the youngest cat?
2. Ringworm cannot be ruled out.  Lab test
3. Chemical burns. History of use of chemicals on the flooring
4. Allergies to food, environment. Lab test

Images of the hind limbs? Before clipping. After clipping. Narrate. Pus expressed.......

ENDING

After clipping bald the areas with skin lesions, treatment involves the following: The pus in wounds are expressed. 

Pus - bacterial infection under the skin and in the ulcer. Intern to define "pus"

Every day, the owner will clean the wounds thoroughly with antiseptics. Anti-fungal and antibiotic cream is applied onto the wound. Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory injection are given.


Outcome - The wounds should heal well with time. 



Tips and advices to cat owners.  Caterwauling is the reason that the owner sends in the cat for spaying. She is on heat and is a noise nuisance.

No spaying till the wound recovers in around 2 weeks. Anti-caterwauling medication like Ovarid. What is Ovarid? Intern to elaborate.

Recent completed video needs to be edited to remove the dog image and to narrate according to the appearance of the footage and images. Intern should not use irrelevant footage of the video to narrate the case study (see the ending part)
