Wise Old Thumper
There's two things in this post really:
1) I was just trying to give Starbuck his Baytril when he squirmed and flinched (as he does!) and I think he may have caught the syringe in his eye. My reflexes arent quick enough and I didnt move out of the way in time. His eye is a bit watery but he seems ok...is there anything I should do to soothe it or just leave it alone?
2) He is going in to the vets for x-ray under sedation tomorrow morning to have a proper look at his eyes and the tear ducts and the teeth. I am quite nervous as I have not had to put any of them through sedation before. Particularly as I dont know how old he is. Any vibes for him would be great and also is there anything I should do or have for aftercare?
Sorry I seem to keep starting loads of new threads lately!
Thank you
Helen
