Chica the Chipmunk....



Poor Chica had her annual vet visit today. She got her rabies and other necessary shots. The vet looked her over and everything seemed great.

We got her home and about an hour and a half later KABOOM. Both cheeks were swollen. Mattie was the one who first noticed it. Chica was scratching and scratching.

I phoned the vet and gave her a 1/4 adult benedryl as directed. An hour passed, then two... so I took her in. You can imagine how happy she felt as we got out of the car!!!

No fever luckily and he gave her a shot of "Dex"? If at 10pm she is still swollen I need to give her more benedryl. I am hoping she will be better by then.
