If we're talking about cats, the M Canis fungi will be responsible for 95% of all cases of Ringworm. Usually, they will get this disease from objects that are contaminated, like clippers or bedding, or from other pets that are already sick.

If you have another pet that already has this disease, other animals should be
kept away from it, so they don't get it as well.
The Ringworm disease is much more likely to show up in cats or kittens that
have less than a year since birth. A kitten that is allowed to go outside is
more likely to get it, either by meeting a cat that has it or by entering in
contact with something that is contaminated. This happens because when they're
young the immune system isn't as strong, so the Ringworm disease is more likely
to affect them.
The Ringworm symptoms are broken or rough hairs and losing their hair around
their paws or head. If you see a patch of skin that looks scaly, inflamed and
itchy, chances are that the cat has Ringworm disease. Near that area of skin
you should also see some broken hairs. It's a sensitive area, so touching it
can hurt the cat. Avoid doing that.
Once those symptoms are observed in your cat, get on the phone and get that vet
appointment. The treatment for this disease is usually tables or ointments.
What he will give her depends on how serious the disease is. Tables are usually
given to cats together with their meals. Ointments are spread topically on the
coat of the cat. Make sure you respect the treatment each day, so the cat has a
chance to heal. It can take six weeks or even more until the cat heals.
Cats that suffer from Ringworm disease should be treated as infectious, and not
allowed in the vicinity of kids. Gloves should be used at all times when
handling the cat. This disease is contagious, so be careful at all times. It's
not a serious problem, but it can cause them, since the recovery time is slow.
