Eating wasps

[Millys Mum]

If its oral i deffo would, dont want them suffocating! A swollen paw i treat at home.

I would still take them after giving them the tab Gill, better safe than sorry.

Oh thanks Milly, must write that down somewhere,,,,,,,,,,,,would they still need to see a vet as well to be on the safe side?

[Millys Mum]

Gill, you can give half a piriton for a sting

Sadly Misa is chasing bees, I have warned him but he will not listen and the vet is 25miles away grrrrrrrrrrrrr.

the vet sounds a bit of a prat wasting time taking details when he could of been saving the cats life

It is the same vet who stated he would rather PTS an unneutered tom than castrate it.

but I'm worried he may sting his throat and affect his breathing. any advise?

I am afraid I have no advise to give as to how to stop a cat chasing wasps/bees. All I will say is if you suspect a cat did have a wasp/bee in its mouth to contact your vet immediately, if not sooner. My Jessica's sister died after being stung. The owner did go straight to the vet but the vet insisted he took all details  name, address etc and by the time he looked at the cat it was dead.

oh no thats awful Ela

What stopped my lot was to get stung! It was only a paw though so not life threatening

I've noticed one of my cats  has taken to chasing and eating wasps. I have tried to stop the behavior but its not made much difference. He hasn't come to any harm yet, but I'm worried he may sting his throat and affect his breathing. any advise?
