I know we are all aware of this issue, and I thought I was too. Until this morning when I had to take Nougat to the vet and have them pick maggots out of her. Sorry if this is gruesome. I took the decision not to use rearguard because of the chemicals in it, and thought the organic route would be better. I WAS WRONG!!!!!
I have never experienced anything so awful. My poor little girl, and it was all my fault. I rescued her to give her a good home, but nearly killed her with what almost seems like neglect.
Please, please, please be aware of this. Use chemicals if you have to, anything so that this doesn't happen.
Nougat seems to be ok. Apparently it was caught in time. I still need to flush out her wound, pick out any remaining maggots and apply cream to where her skin has been chewed off. She has however, just eaten a bowlful of greens.
I'm so proud of her. She didn't make a fuss at all at the vets. I've let her down so badly.
