Seen the vet. She admitted she doesn't know what could be the cause, it could be an ear infection but she wonders if there is a neurological element as the eye with the ulcer doesn't blink, it didn't last week either, I have lubricating gel for this eye. She has said that if the lapizole is stressing Ruby out (she will not take it at all) to not give it to her as it is very unlikely to be ec as she has recently had the full course of lapizole. I'm to continue with the eye drops and baytril (not got metacam) and take her back in 2 weeks.
The vet initially though the worst as Ruby was very stressed and flopped on to her side and would not get back up. I told the vet she was acting fine at home. Vet out her back in the box after checking her over and Ruby attacked her towel and her head went from a 90 degree angle to almost upright! Vet said that if she was acting like that she seems ok in herself we would continue the treatment as she is obviously coping and happy in herself. At the moment she thinks she is probably ok and hoping we can make improvements over the next couple of weeks.
Aaaww I am really glad Ruby showed the vet that she *can* lift her head up! I hope you all have a peaceful weekend with lots of binkies around the garden. Ruby and not you
