My vet phoned me whilst she was still under the GA as when he removed the eye their was an abcess as big as the eyeball and it had already worked it's way across to the other eye but was also spreading through the bone into the skull.
I had to do the best by her as he said she would have had 2wks max. I just cannot believe it only appeared this morning (the symptom, I mean)
Oh Kay bless her, poor Bonnie that is awful - but you made the right decision for your special girl & she will always be grateful that you let her go before she suffered any more. Hugs to you all at this awful time xxx
Thank you I feel sick thinking I have missed something with her
don't feel bad kay! having had joon with an abscess behind her eye i know that you didn't miss anything so don't feel bad. joon's symptoms were so very slight and the only thing i noticed was a slight pertruding of the eye which is how poor bonnie had ended up. Joon kept eating and was her normal self. As you know joon survived her op but the abscess came back and was no where near as bad as bonnie's. You couldn't have done anything and at least she enjoyed her life to the full however short, it's just not fair though
