Bees attacked my Furbaby
 

We had quite a fright last night. Around 1030pm, my furbutt decided she wanted to go outside. Well, she ultimately stuck about 1/2 her body into a beehive :( :(
I, of course was shrieking like a mad woman. She ran out of there 90 mph and started rolling around and scratching her face. Eventually, i stopped chasing her and called her to me and she ran right into my arms. I had half the mind to jump into the pool with her but I didn't see any bees on her. I took her into the patio where the light was on and checked her out. I didn't see any stings but she'd cry if I tried to touch her face. Then she started growling and such (she never does this).
I called the after hours vet emergency # and took her into the animal hospital. The whole way there she was whining and growling. Of course I caught every red light in this 10 minute drive. Once we got there she calmed down and the vets couldn't find any stingers on her or swollen areas. They gave her Benadryl (sp?) shot and I waited around with her for about 30 minutes just in case she had any sort of reactions. She seems back to her normal self now. active, not whining or crying if I touch her face. Never did find any stingers or bumps after at least 10 searches by 4 different people (me, family, vet, etc). So, I'm not sure if she just got freaked out and they flew into her face.
Anyways, sorry for the long story but I wanted to know if there was anything in particular I should look out for or do besides what the vet told me to do?
Thanks for taking the time to read my lonnnng post

ah, poor baby- i'd be look to get the hive out of there!!

oh yes, we are doing so today!!

How scarry! My Taz tried to eat a bee once, and it got him on the lip.:eek: Gave him benedryl, after calling the vet, and he was fine. He did swell up a little, but with mom's TLC, all was well.:D

Good to hear. I was seriously flipping out. lol whewww i didnt get a wink of sleep last nite (though she did)

oh i hope little mans ok give him lots of extra loving

I'm so glad evereything turned out OK. I'm sure your quick thinking helped.

That certainly was too close for comfort.
I am so happy he is alright.It's amazing he was not stung at all.

Buddy sniffed in the grass when he was 9months old and he let out a yelp.
I looked around and didn't see anything but about 1/2 hrs later
I looked at him and his whole right eye was red and swollen. He could
barely open his eye. Yes, he did get stung by a bee and Benedryl was
what the vet said and ice. He was fine later but I can just imagine
how frighted you must have been.

Hugs to your baby,

What a scary experience for you! Sounds like you handled it just right! I'm so glad you and your furbaby are fine now!

OMG! that's so scary!!

Thanks everyone for the well wishes. She seems to be doing just fine now. I rechecked her again a bit ago and found nothing and no whining either. she ran around the house and tuckered herself out and now is napping next to me. :-D going to try to figure out how to get rid of the bees now.

BTW: i went out this morning and got her a new pretty dress and some bows (don't worry she wasn't left home alone) I just felt so bad!!

oh V you have to show pics of Bindi in her new dress!!!

Glad your baby is ok.
Parker is always playing with a bug on the patio. Now I will be watching him constantly. I know that had to be scary.
