In the house. In the study. Where I am. Along with several *very*
interested cats. Fez and Rufous have chased the wasp to the top of the
bookcase. I hope nobody gets stung, specially me.
Crap, they're pawing at it now, I'm sure it's pissed.
HELP!

Shut the cats out of the room for an hour and open all the windows.

But it's hot outside! ;-)
I think the wasp stung Rufous, he had a funny look and kept licking his
paw. Haven't seen the wasp in 20 minutes.

If you think he's been stung soak the sting site in vinegar.  Dab it on, and
do it for a while, it really works and relieves the pain.

I'm hoping it'll teach him to leave wasps alone.

 Do good work.

Knowing Rufous "Chewer Extraordinaire", yes, the wasp was consumed.

I think Snoopy must have been stung at some time, she's terrified of wasps.

I have two stories of cats & wasps.  ONe was poor bEast - twice I saw
him get stung and he took off and ran like hell.  PS he wasn't doing
anything the second time, just sitting there.  AND it was clear Willie
was so bored with his long stay at the pound he'd hunt anything that
moved, and caught and ate a wasp befoe I could intercede.

Flyswatter works for me. Swing hard, with lots of force.
