- Thanks to everyone who answered our question. Given that they are indoor
- cats, crop circles are probably out of the question. The vet did agree
- with most of the replies and thought that it was probably ringworm.
- However, there was nothing to be seen under black light, and we are now
- waiting for the results of a culture. Somebody suggested it might be
- demodex? Some info on what that is and how it is treated would be
- welcome.
-
- Thanks again to all
