Don't mess with wasps or bees. He came in last night with his face all

anything, and he didn't seem in any discomfort so I decided to assess in
the morning. Anyway, all's well that ends well, he's fine this morning,
no swelling and the sting has faded.


A number of years ago, my niece was watching her Siamese play in her back
yard. It caught a bee in its mouth and was instantly in trouble. She
grabbed her car keys, caught the cat and rushed it to the Vet two blocks
away. The cat was dead by the time she got there. MLB


Yikes. That's a horrible tale. Anaphalactic shock, no doubt. But at least
she rushed the cat to the vet rather than asking on a newsgroup "what should
I do?"
