I have a standard female calico which I have had since I was 2 (i am now 21). She turns 20 this year. I know this is well past her life expectancy, but she has been like a kitten, not showing her age, until this week.

The problems that she seems to be exhibiting are usual with age, the major is a decreased immune system response. She got ringworm this past week, we are treating that orally and topically. She is also lethargic.

At this age, is there anything i can/should do, or just let nature take its course? She is my best friend, and would do anything possible for her.

Hunter
