I heard of them. It is a caruba grub ( spelling? ).

The hole isnt big enough, THANK GOD, for that.

I will let you know what the vet says. Im so nervous now! Ugh.

Well, she kept licking her right leg, where the wasps stung her, and she has another hold there with more pus.

I read that wasp stings can cause that. More things to worry about!

What will the vet do?

Since you're going to the vet so soon I wouldn't worry about it. The vet will probably drain all the pus, clean it out and put a bandage on it and give you some antibiotics, I'm sure your cutie will be good as new soon!

Well, the vet said it is an infection. So, he gave me some Clavamox to give to her 2x a day.

I have the memory too. I was rather young at the time and totally in shock when the vet squeezed my kittens' wound and a gross little worm popped out

We call the infection/worm thing a wool or wolf. I have had a cat and a goat to have one. Once you clean the worm and infection out they heal just fine. They get in wild animals too. Glad your dog is okay.

Your poor baby. She will be good as new in no time. I sure am glad it wasnt something worse. Those babies can just worry us to death sometimes

I have an old ex-tom cat that likes to fight when or if he spots an intruder. I have learned to drain/soak/treat wounds like that. It is really stressfull. I have been locking him inside at night.

I have a kitten who had a warble (worm from a hatched fly egg) in her eye. Removal of the worm and antibiotics have her good as new. Her eye looks a little "off" but she still has vision.

Clavamox is a great antibiotic, I'm sure your baby will be good as gold in just a couple days.
