13/03/2026 Walk in nurse (Chelsa) triage - Bee sting

1:28pm - Pippa was in the garden and Belinda saw her get stung on the face by a bee, also had video evidence from house cam. She pawed at her face for a couple of seconds but quickly resolved. Within 3 minutes, Belinda had the bee in a jar (no stinger seen on bee) and gave Pippa half a Zyrtec (0.5ml in total). 
Since the incident, Pippa is reported to have been more quiet than normal but is still ambulating normally and has a very happy tail wag. 
No vomiting or symptoms. 7:30am - Handful of dry food. 1:20pm - Roo stick snack. Has had lots to drink this morning but hasn't been seen drinking since bee sting. 

This is not the first time Pippa has been stung by a bee. In 2024 she was stung on the foot and had a reaction - passed out and projectile vomiting but the reaction was bought on 2 hours later when she was excited and barking at a dog. She was taken to emergency where they found a stinger in her foot (after we were unable to find here), she was put on fluids and monitored in their hospital. I have requested the hx from this visit.

Belinda came to OG today panicked as she found a small lump on lateral surface of Pippa's RFL. 
Chloe took FNA and just a follicular cyst. Advised to clean with betadine 2x daily for 3 days.
Passed info onto Belinda. She will clean with betadine and saline. She also asked about grooming as a grooming class she took noted that JRT shouldnt be bathed lots as bad for their immune system. Advised a bath every 4-6 weeks will be fine. Just dont want to be overdoing it and stripping the good natural oils from the coat or drying out the skin. Unless she is smelly or dirty she wouldnt need much grooming anyway. Use aloveen if no issues with it as will be gentle on her skin.
