Ringworm doesn’t have to derail your shelter’s lifesaving efforts. This presentation equips shelter staff, veterinary technicians, and medical teams with a practical, repeatable framework for managing ringworm confidently and cost-effectively while keeping cats with ringworm on the path to adoption.​​

Using six key “stops”—biosecurity, intake, diagnosis, housing, treatment, and clearance—we’ll break down the decisions that matter most and show how evidence-based protocols can shorten length of stay, improve outcomes, and reduce many of the barriers that have traditionally made ringworm feel overwhelming. We’ll follow a real-world case that ties the journey together, illustrating a flexible approach that can be adapted to shelters of all sizes and resources.
