Sorry if this is a deeply dumb question but can buns get bitten by mosquitos?
I've moved and am in an area with quite alot of mosquitos-am moving to 6 monthly myxi jabs don't worry!!!
I've noticed a big swelling by my boys nose today - he's having twice daily eye wash outs for a blocked tear duct so I'm sure I would have noticed the swelling before. It's definitely within the skin, moves, isn't an abscess and poking at it doesn't seem to bother him too much.
I'm planning to keep an eye on it but he's back to the vets a week tomorrow anyway.
Anyone got any thoughts? I know cats get skin cancers but do buns? Even if they do an insect bite is more likely I would have thought? Oh I also have a lavander plant....I keep chasing them out of it as I'm sure lavander oil can but quite irritating.
Sorry for such a long post and sorry for not being on here for ages!!!
Where do the weeks go??????
