Die from a Budgie bite?

[spiderz]

Are you still OK?
No side effects?

Have the cat bite you...seems he's had better luck than the budgie so far...

And while he's at it, better get a penicillin shot as well... fer the Chlamydia 'n Candida!!

Makes you wonder what he did to the bird that it bit him

:twisted:

I just picked it up after my cat had dropped it.

It seemed pretty scared and in shock.

To be fair, i know budgies are not venomous.

I was just worried they might carry commonly known and dangerous bacteria.

Shhh... Don't ruin the entertainment value

I'm sorry to hear about the bird

 

[Venomous]

Is the bird still alive?

 

[smokey]

No. That's why you should never eat chicken at Chinese restaurants.

damm, is he still alive?

The budgie died today

Apparently, cats have a lot of bacteria in their mouths.

Because budgie's have very sensitive immune systems, if the bite does not kill them, the bacteria will after a couple of days.

Sad. He was a cute little guy.

Thanks, Lyca.

I missed that post somehow.

The vet shoulda given the budgie a antibiotic jab. Last time one of my cats got hurt inna fight the vet gave a jab that he said that would release slowly over 2 weeks so no trips to & from the vet every day

Thanks, Lyca.

Think budgies are a bit more frail than vicious toms

I think it's unfair you should blame the poor kitty and not take responsibility for exposing the boor birdie to you germ invested blood.

mah tom is a lil kitty. LOL he's so small that even the medium sized female that I have makes him look beeeg. When I got him he could sit on my had & I can still carry him sitting on one arm. He's a midgit kitty.

I have taken plenty of cat bitten birdies (some smaller than budgies) to our vet & they take them in fix 'em & release 'em again. of the many that I have taken there (plenty of cats in the complex) only 2 have not survived. I suppose it does help that the one vet specialises in birdies & lizards & stuff like that.

What will happen if your moggie brings in an ostrich?

penicillin would make the candida worse.
