Hi Everybody,

Thanks for your feedback and comments on Fiefal's situation.
To answer Dr. Williams question,,Fiefal had gone out on occassion but only
for about 15 minutes with close supervision in our backyard...I never did see
the tick if it was a tick bite--unless he scratched it off himself. Would you
reccomend antibiotic treatment in case it is a tick bite or do you think the
wait and see approach is better?? How can you distinguish if its a tick bite or
growth??

Thanks,
Christina
