Nasty waspsI have just found a wasps nest on my neighbours property. I told them as they were climbing inside the chimney, hundreds of them. So they came out and sprayed and sprayed and sprayed. Needless to say Denis had to stay in away from toxic sprays and angry wasps. He wasn't happy at all he paced and cried and cried and paced. So I fed him temptations which distracted him for about 10 mins!!! How long do you think I should keep him in? Till no more wasps do you think? He has a tendency to eat anything that flys and I think he will catch a docile sprayed wasp...and then what??

My inclination would be better safe than sorry, although I know he's going to drive you crazy being stuck indoors! But better than trying to eat a wasp covered with poison, or getting a very nasty sting....I hope they managed to kill most of them so maybe the remaining ones will fly off to start a new nest elsewhere..... |

He has eaten bees before and has been stung which didn't stop him  Maybe I should wait til morning cos I wouldn't know what to look for in a cat who's eaten a sprayed wasp?? |

I haven't any idea about symptoms, sorry. Three of mine have had bee stings, and avoided them like the plague ever after. The thing is, a bee loses its stinger after using it, but a wasp doesn't they can keep stinging!! I am afraid of them myself, frankly. |
