Where'd River go?!
She was in seclusion in the cuddle cube. She was not happy with having to get a vet visit, eye drops, and a force-feeding (all courtesy of little human). Poor little munchkin somehow managed to accidentally give herself an ouchie on her eyelid.
Oh no! Is she okay? What happened? and where did you find her?
ReplyDeleteHi Mónica!
ReplyDeleteYeah, River's doing better now--we found her in their bunny cave/cuddle cube! We think that she must've scratched her inner eyelid (third eyelid/nictitating membrane) while either cleaning her face or scratching at her cheek. It caused all of her lids to look red and inflamed within minutes and her eye was watering.
I was afraid of her getting an infection or doing some damage to the eye itself, so I took her and Simon to the vet for a check-up. The vet did a dye test to check that her cornea was ok--thankfully it was! I had to give her antibiotic eye drops for 5 days and force feed her since she stubbornly refused to eat/drink willingly (I'm guessing the medicine upset her stomach).
