When is it safe to bring a kitten with ringworm home to other cats?

Question

Hi There! Hope your well. We have 2 healthy cats. When we chose a 3rd to adopt it was discovered the 4 month old had ringworm. The kitten is going thru treatment. When is it safe to finalize the adoption and bring the new kitty home? Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Male | unneutered | 3 months and 29 days old | 4 lbs

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Loki. The standard recommend is to have a minimum of two negative fungal cultures performed 2 weeks apart from each other. I hope this information helps!
