Vet gave him a steriod shot and a course of antihistamine......

He has been feeling a bit sorry for himself, has not eaten any tea.......and just laying on the sofa...........good news though his face is going down ,( slowly)
Poor Bandit (and you) - get well soon

Glad its going down, he`ll feel much better then

It can be scary how just how fast the swelling appears sometimes

If it ever happens again it`d be best to just go the vets straight away with a call to him to say you`re on your way with an emergency
