Stumpy and
White White are two males that we managed to capture and neuter last year. They return to our back alley daily to eat.

Stumpy looks very well and is less afraid of me though he won't let me near him. I noticed that White White had "black eyeliners", around 3 weeks ago but he was otherwise okay. On Friday night, my heart went cold when I saw that his right eye was sealed shut while his left eye was cloudy.

| After cleaning the eyes with saline |
He allowed me to scruff him and put him in the carrier without any fuss which was very surprising. I cleaned out his eyes with saline and thankfully the right eye looked okay. The left eye had a corneal ulceration. I took him to the vet on Saturday morning and the vet said it was bad, but should recover with treatment. So we went home with oral antibiotics, antibiotic drops and antibiotic ointment.
 |
| After the eye drops and ointment. He doesn't put up a fight during medication. And he doesn't bother the eye so there's no need to put the E collar on him |
It's suspected that he had conjunctivitis (the black eyeliner period) which led him to paw at his eye which may have caused a scratched cornea and later an ulceration. We should see significant reduction in the swelling within 2 days and possibly a full recovery in 10 days. Till then, he'll stay at our porch (caged).
 |
| He's very well behaved, has good appetite and seem to be quite content to stay in the cage |
Some purrs that he continues to cooperate and make a full recovery would be much appreciated!

Oh White White, you are so lucky to have that nice human around to take care of you. Your eyes look better every day. And what a good boy you are not to fuss about being in the cage. You probably feel so much better getting those eyes treated. Thank thank you for letting that human take care of you. We are sending tons of purrs to ya to get all better.
Purring for White White a speedy recovery and I am glad that he stayed close after last year so he can get the treatment he needs.
Poor White White! Lots of prayers and purrs for him!!! xo
Aw, poor White White! We hope his eyes heals quickly. And bless you for taking care of him!
Ha ha ha! Yes I shared bit! I felt a little like a drug supplier, mailing out little plastic baggies with tiny samples to CK (whose Human is going to let her try it after all--report supposed to be coming on Wednesday), and I hope you read Mom Trish's comment on how the KatnipLounge kitties fared "under the influence." She's promised some pix as well! Did you know you'd be dealer to the whole Cat Blogosphere??? :-)
Ow, poor baby, those eyes look so bad and painful.
We can't purr, so hopefully some barks and crossed paws will help. :)
