zanthessSo, we were getting excited about Pixel's visit to the opthamologist today to see how his blind eye is doing, and if his other eye has stabilized, but this weekend before we had kind of a scare...
Friday morning the hub picked him up to give him his eye drop, and noticed that the fur around his blind eye was all wet. Not only that, but he had a line, much like a crease, going across his eye!
I freaked and called the vet to see if we needed to take him in. While I was doing that, the hub discovered what had happened.
Since rabbits sleep with their eyes open and pixel is blind in one eye.... he rolled over in his cardboard castle and rested his eye on an edge of the cardboard!
It's all cleared up now, and the doc has cut down his meds to every other day, with a (hopefully last) checkup in May.
What a dope. :P
