OH WOW - that's one of my fears with mine outside - POOR BABY !! That had to hurt - you do need to watch for an allergic reaction - Bee Stings are FAMOUS for severe reactions in small animals - your vet gave yu the best advise - I have an ER phone number right at hand just in case of these things.....

I hope your baby learned his lesson - but I truly believe if he sees another bee - he'd go after it just because it's in their temperment to play with anything they can grab...If you can SPRAY for bees in your own yard it may help - I'm always looking for beehives - in Texas we get HUGE ones !!

Little stinker.... and on his little nose of all places ...OUCH !
