is he okay?

Question
I have a half-Siamese cat.He got outside accidently and came in
with a vey swollen nose. Now the swelling is down, but he's got
little whitish bumps on his nose and a couple on his ears. They
don't seem to itch or hurt too much. What should I do?

Answer
Hi Kim,
He probably got stung by something. Since the swelling has gone down, I wouldn't worry too much, just keep an eye on it. If he stops eating or drinking, then you need to worry.  You can give cats Benadryl (NOT the liquid kind), for stings and such that produce swelling.  It is probably too late to help him out now, but keep this in case it happens again.  Do NOT ever give him aspirin, it is highly toxic to cats.

Benadryl is a brand name for an anti-histamine (diphenhydramine).  Although it is considered fairly safe for use in dogs and cats,  please be aware that it does have potential adverse side effects.  It may interact with other meds that your pet is taking, so do not use it without first consulting your veterinarian. You should also use extreme caution using Benadryl in dogs that have glaucoma, prostatic disease, cardiovascular disease or hyperthyroidism.  

Benadryl is quite effective when used in proper dosages.  
Stops itching
Controls vomiting
Good for motion sickness
Can be used as a mild tranquilizer
Good for snake bites
Useful for vaccination reactions
Good for bee stings and insect bites

Be sure to use only the plain Benadryl formula. Giving benadryl with other combination of meds could be fatal, so be sure to read the box.

Liquid Benadryl is too high in alcohol content to be safely used for animals.  Please use capsule or pill form.
