How to comfortably treat a cat’s ear mites?
Cat ear mites are ear-scab mites in the canal causing itch, pain, and brown wax. Clean the canal with mite medicine or ear wash, then use a dewormer with avermectin or ivermectin. To prevent secondary infection, use anti-inflammatory drops or oral medicine under a vet's guidance, and keep an Elizabethan collar on.
Is my cat’s ringworm getting better or worse?
Ringworm treatment lasts about a month; darkened skin is a normal drug effect, not necessarily better or worse. Keep cleaning, medicating, and add nutrition; clear scabs before applying medicine.

My puppy is under three months old, recently stopped eating, got thin and listless, and I found parasites in its bed. Does it need deworming, and how do I get it to take the medicine?
Worms in the stool mean a serious internal parasite infection needing prompt deworming. Use oral meds with milbemycin, praziquantel, or fenbendazole; puppies need monthly deworming. Choose a palatable product to make dosing easier.
What do I do if my cat has ringworm?
The skin issue may be ringworm; a Wood's lamp shows green fluorescence if positive (70% accuracy), but vet diagnosis is needed. Confirmed ringworm is treated with antifungal medicine per the vet.
A few days ago my dog’s ear got inflamed; we applied medicine, and today its lower part is also inflamed.
Ear inflammation can be bacterial, fungal, or mite-related, each needing different treatment. Have a vet identify the cause; bacterial needs antibiotics, fungal needs antifungals, parasitic needs deworming.
