Cutting deprive which in a different way is called still a trichophytia, a dermatofitiya or a microsporia, can be shown at cats. The disease is infectious and it is very dangerous to people. Most often it is shown at kittens about one year, animals or people with weak immunity.
Deprive – a disease fungal. At an animal with good immunity it arises very seldom though the fungus can be for years on leather and wool. The organism of a healthy cat does not allow a fungus to extend.
As there is infection deprive
Deprive, shown at cats, it is dangerous to people if they have a weakened immunity. The fungus extends disputes which are visible only by means of a microscope. At the cats who are engaged in catching of mice, cutting deprive it can be shown after hunting as rodents are also subject to an infection. Disputes can be postponed by air, settle on furniture, walls, a floor, linen and clothes. The infected cat absolutely not necessarily came into contact with the carrier – she could walk on a grass where the infected dog or other cat lay, or even to be rubbed about the owner's jacket.
The sick animal needs to be isolated – deprive it will not be possible to remove quickly. It is desirable for the person contacting to a cat to secure itself against infection – for this purpose during contact with a sick animal it is necessary to put on surgical gloves, boot covers and a dressing gown. Especially it is necessary if in housing there are small children.
Depriving symptoms
As at a cat will look deprive, depends on the resilience of her immunity and degree of infection. It can be round high temples with the shelled surface. Spots can have grayish or yellowish color, sometimes they itch, and the cat begins to comb them claws. Depriving external signs at animals – sites with the "broken-off" strands of wood which gradually extend. Deprive at cats it is shown differently – small spots on a muzzle and ears or extensive sites without hair can testify to it. Therefore owners should prick up the ears at the sight of any high temple. There are also such cases when at the infected animal a disease do not develop – elbows will just go bald. But it is all the same necessary to address the veterinarian – if the immunity slightly falls, the fungus will immediately extend to sides, forming bald spots. It must be kept in mind that disputes will be showered even from very small sites. If with external signs of the desease everything is clear, it is more difficult to distinguish others. The healthy cat can not react to an infection even. Some animals can scratch more intensively, than usually, at others skin can be angry, covered with heat-spots or small knots. The trip to the veterinarian is anyway obligatory – only he is capable to make the exact diagnosis. Depriving signs remind other skin diseases and to postpone a visit to the doctor simply unreasonably.
