I woke up this morning to find Ollie's right eye half open, red and very basset-like! :yikes
I wiped it over with a wet towelette and fed him breakfast and then put him to bed, I thought he would need the extra rest.
I know I should take him to the vets but after some bad news in the family we've had to arrange a very unplanned flight for Wednesday. We definately don't have the money to be making flights (especially for 3 people) and the added cost of the vet bills may not be affordable. My mum is out shopping and I know that she'd lend me a 50 for the vet but my dad is the only one home now and he would NOT! When I show him Ollie's eye he'll only say. "Leave it a few days and it shold be ok. Do you think I'm loaded with money and can just spend it whenever I want? Blah Blah Blah!"
Theres only a couple of days till Wednesday, it's all so rushed! I also need to find him a place to stay for when we're gone. I feel the best place would be his breeders house but that is QUITE a distance from the airport. I think thats the place we're he'll get the best treatment. I don't think I could handle leaving him in a kennel, especially if he needs daily eye drops or something.
I heard that bathing the eye in salt water could help, what do you think?
Sorry for all the trouble, Emily :flwr:
