a spider or something bit Roxy on her nose roll and it took several months to heal. She was on antibiotics and I had to drain a dime size abscess daily. It finally went away, but it left a little scar.

if you decided not to go to the vet and something happened or it got real bad in the middle of the night and something REALLY bad happened... you would never forgive yourself. If you havent seen it getting much better with Benedryl, then at least CALL the emergency vet and ask their opinion. Chances are, they are going to want to see him.

Luckily, I have our vet's cell number and home number and I've never had to take them in. Coop has had welts all over him. AJ is less affected and the area may be hot to the touch. I've only had to use benadryl for the temporary affects of a bite or sting. There is a little concern for me in that your babe's eyes were swollen shut and not much improvement over the course of the day. I hope all is well now.


Sandra, Cooper & AJ

I hope all is well.

Insect bites can be deadly and are not to be fooled with especially if he is moaning. My Butkus got stung this summer and his eyes swelled shut and was oozing pus, he was an awful mess.....
Let us know how it goes....

Really. It sounds like you "monitored" the situation and in monitoring it, you've decided that things haven't gotten better. A visit to the vet certainly can't HURT. And you'll have peace of mind, even if it's just a matter of getting a more powerful Benadryl shot to help speed things up.

I wouldn't take any chances. Just my opinion of course.

Spread happiness.
