Abstract: This article describes the treatment methods and research results for feline microsporia.Microsporia in cats is an extremely common disease.The causative agent is a fungus of the genus Microsporum.Microdiagnostics was carried out according to the generally accepted methodology, by collecting an anamnesis of life, complaints about the condition, as well as a visual general examination, external data at the sites of lesions, and a general biochemical blood test.The fastest method for diagnosing microsporia in cats is the use of Wood's ultraviolet lamp.Mushrooms of the genus Microsporum have the property of fluorescence in ultraviolet light, therefore, when the lesions are illuminated with a lamp, they will glow in a bright green or yellow-green color.Cats with obvious signs of lichen were used as material.The treatment was carried out with antifungal drugs dermicocide and imaverol and immunomodulator forvet.The purpose of the research is to study and apply different methods of treating cats with microsporia.We divided the animals into 3 groups, each group had 5 cats.We treated the first group as suggested by the veterinarians of the branch of the State Budgetary Institution "RVS" in Grozny.We treated the second group with our own method.The control group included healthy cats.
