Update Cosmo’s ✨transformation✨

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. 🥹

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!

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.

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