Thankfully his face was slightly less swollen and the eyedrops seem to have eased the pain and discomfort this morning. He could open his eye for shorty periods of time but he was not impressed at being taken back and handed over to the vet' nurse this morning.
He is not in for much of a fun day either as they plan to investigate and treat where possible for skull abnormalities, abcesses, tear duct problems and teeth as his face was so bad yesterday.
Thankfully he will be off with the fairies for the whole thing but I know it could knock him for six. Need to have more of an indea of what is happening around his jaw and skull so we can plan how to treat or manage this for him. Oh and he is having a dental done on his slightly maloccluded spurs on his back teeth whilst he is out to check on his eye.
Left him with a bag of Timothy hay, dried herbs, some basil,broccalli and savoy outer leaves to persuede him to get eating asap. The vet does over good farm hay and ss/burgess pellets but Pumpkin has got seriously fond of Timothy hay and herbs. They know he is on an almost pure hay/herbage diet.
Hoping this is not pointing towards a hidden tooth abcess that is pressing into his eye socket for his sake.
Not sure what his outlook will be if it is a hidden abcessed eye socket. Vet will call me later as things go on to let me know and ask for verbal permission for any extras he might need.
This feels horrible- he was doing so well and had just settled in. I miss him headbutting the office door to let me know he has worked out where I am hiding.
Teasel is missing him already even though they are not bonded, they are friendly and like to see each other, so she is battering her jingle ball across the bars to let me know she is unimpressed her boy eye candy has gone out and left her behind.
