so my kitten got bit by my Brachypelma smithi, should i take her to the vet or no? ive never had this happen where any of my other animals has been bitten. any advice?

How?

I was feeding my T's, and my B. smithi got out and I was in the process of looking for her and I turned around and saw my kitten playing with it and then she ate it before i could get to her but her face is swelling up so im assuming that she got bit in her mouth.

I would definitely take your kitten to the vet. Cats can go into shock very easily from allergic reactions. You just never know.

Yea I'm headed over to the vet now. Thanks

Please let us know how she is. How big was the smithi?

 

[Kiki_Lyks_Bugs]

I will for sure!

 

[Kiki_Lyks_Bugs]

She was about 1 1/2 inches.

I hope kitty is ok. This is why when feeding, or any kind of maintenance, I fasten my cats out of the room.

How's the kitten? Fingers crossed it hasn't done any permanent damage..
I'm having problems with my ex girlfriend's cats they keep eating the tops off my chilli seedlings . Bloody pesky kittens !

She was held over night all i know is, is that i got her there in time cause she started breathing very heavily... I dont know her status right now im waiting to here back from the vet.

 

[Enn49]

Fingers crossed you got her treated in time.

 

[spidey noob]

Great to know Kitty is okay now... How about your B.Smithi?

 

[Jesusplants]

Sorry about your B. smithi but good to hear the kitten survived!

Thivo, from what I understand the kitty ate it. So my guess is the smithi is not doing too well
