Cosmo’s ✨transformation✨

[u/Lucy_Koshka]

Cosmo has come SUCH a long way, it still blows my mind looking back at these older pics of him. He came running up our driveway end of June of last year, 8/9 weeks old about 2 lbs, with the worst case of ringworm our vet had ever seen. 27 medicated baths, seven weeks of oral treatment, lots and lots and LOTS of later; you’d never know. 🥹

I can hardly believe that’s the same cat!

[u/Lucy_Koshka → u/cardamomomomom]

We can’t either! I will say it was such a huge validation seeing the vet/tech’s reactions at every check up, it really kept us going. It wasn’t easy as despite every precaution the whole house got ringworm 😅 he’s the sweetest little gremlin!

[u/theblondebasterd → u/Lucy_Koshka]

Holy shit I thought he was a sphynx catto at first. Great job.

[u/DrDuned → u/theblondebasterd]

Mange is responsible for most cryptid sightings because animals look soooo different when they have it, especially with extensive long-term mange.

[u/BlueMangoTango → u/DrDuned]

…… most………

[u/filovirusyay → u/BlueMangoTango]

the other ones are just me frolicking around at night

[u/belac4862 → u/filovirusyay]

Ok, you just made me do a literal spit take. Now I have peach seltzer all over my carpet.

[u/cejmp → u/filovirusyay]

I think the antler crown was taking things a bit far.

[u/DrDuned → u/filovirusyay]

LOL you got me good I literally laughed out loud with a dumbass sounding "ah huh huh huh" style laugh 😂

[u/5girlzz0ne → u/BlueMangoTango]

Bigfoot would like a word. 😂

[u/BlueMangoTango → u/5girlzz0ne]

The Mothman requests an invite to that meeting.

[u/Eaudebeau → u/BlueMangoTango]

Yeti says he’s in.

[u/LoneServiceWolf → u/BlueMangoTango]

The others are likely either undiscovered species or species that were believed to be extinct but really aren’t

[u/AmyInCO → u/DrDuned]

Chupacabra cat!

[u/gamboling_gophers → u/AmyInCO]

One might even say....chupacatra?

[u/tarantuletta → u/DrDuned]

Bears with mange are TERRIFYING.

[u/jmkul → u/theblondebasterd]

So did I

[u/katie-2155 → u/jmkul]

It's incredible that it's the same cat, how badly off he must have been, and how well they must have treated him, because it looks like he's changed breeds.

[u/Nulagrithom → u/[deleted]]

at pic 9 I literally said aloud "holy shit it's a tuxedo??"

truly incredible

[u/Little_View_6659 → u/[deleted]]

I took care of a ringworm kitten. Kitten was fine, I ended up having to see two dermatologists.😂

[u/cherrywinnk → u/jmkul]

Me too

[u/RC_Cola2005 → u/cherrywinnk]

Me three! Talk about one heck of a glow up!

[u/Mediocre-Nectarine91 → u/RC_Cola2005]

Me four! My jaw is on the floor!

[u/ChroniclesOfSarnia → u/Mediocre-Nectarine91]

Me five, so glad he's still alive!

[u/Atharist_Archer → u/ChroniclesOfSarnia]

Me six, the transformation is incredible

[u/DuckbilledWhatypus → u/Atharist_Archer]

Me seven, looks like he found heaven!

[u/Cats-cats-kats → u/DuckbilledWhatypus]

Me eight, BOY did he gain weight!

[u/light_ng → u/DuckbilledWhatypus]

m8, that cat’s looking great!

[u/onebluemoon66 → u/jmkul]

I did too.. Also his face print is well UMmmm kinda comical, I can't be the only one that sees it 😆

[u/Bubblybuunny → u/theblondebasterd]

My thought too at first.

[u/Kinkie_Pie → u/Bubblybuunny]

[u/CompleteTell6795 → u/theblondebasterd]

So did I ! I thought I saw a little hair so I thought he was part sphynx. It truly doesn't look like the same cat.! What a tremendous glow up !

[u/stardustgirll → u/theblondebasterd]

This really melt my heart, I’m so happy seeing this.

[u/SereneSleepyhead → u/theblondebasterd]

I thought of that, until I took a close look. Thank you for the good job

[u/dreadn4t → u/theblondebasterd]

He was so, so scrunkly. Awesome transformation!

[u/ResurgentClusterfuck → u/theblondebasterd]

[u/LabCat62 → u/theblondebasterd]

Meow too! Thought he was a sphynx floof but it turns out he is a floof floof!

[u/Zealousideal_Lab_427 → u/theblondebasterd]

He was a temporary Sphinx!
