I just noticed Maddie was acting funny: squirmy, rubbing her head around on the couch. So as I imspected her I found a monster tick dug into her head with just a butt sticking out! I slowly pulled with tweezers and it broke in half! I know I know! I should have put mineral oil or vaseline to have it back out. I just paniced and forgot all I knew! IT was so big on her little head....
Now I don;t know what to do. Is there something I can put on it to get it out? Thank you for all your help!!!
