Having just got in from a PTA meeting i go to do the evening litter trays and feeding frenzie to find one of my foster kittens with a red eye completely bloodshot, couldnt see pupil just blood red. Quickly scooped her up and phoned Angie, then Jill and then the on call vet who said the same thing. To keep an eye on her and take her in first thing in the morning. Dont know how or what she has done but she was out her pen running around the kitchen with all her brothers and sister today and they all go mad! Worring to look at and i hope she doesnt loss her sight in that eye. She seems fine otherwise playing and eating etc. Well shes out with me for the night cant imagine im going to get much sleep worrying about her. So send her all your good vibes for tomorrow. Have got piccies but computer taking ages to down load resizing thing so i can post them
-
piccies hopefully :-:
-
Maybe one of the others punched her with a claw.....hope its nothing serious :hug:
-
poor little mite - but eyes do have a tendency to look worse than they are
-
:cheer:At last it worked just have to work out to stop the delay on my camera so the are not so fuzzy and ill be there anyway here are some more
-
Poor baby, it does look sore :care: Hope the vet can sort her out :hug:
-
Karen poor little one, I bet you cannot wait for the vets to open!
Just keep feed her and let her get some rest, hopefully with some food in her tummy, she will rest and shut her eye.
I think Coventry Cat Group are keeping them busy at the moment. I am trying to tell when Old Boy has had enough, but he ate his pilchards tonight, and seemed to enjoy them. He has been managing his Orijen until the day before yesterday. :(
-
Aw Bless him give him a :hug: from me.
I agree about the vets only in there to see Ross today about the two kittens with runny eyes today. Think theres an eye thing going on with me :evillaugh: They seem better already tonight but cant speak too soon as they got better before and then back again bless them. And theres Portia in there!!
-
:( Poor thing! hopefully just a burst blood vessel or something similar as that won't affect her.
-
Poor baby :'( - I hope it is just a scratch that can be sorted with some cream. :hug:
-
Aw poor baby, positive vibes for the vets~~~~~Good Luck! :Luv: :hug:
-
yes good luck karen waiting on some news.
-
Poor little kitten :'( I cant help noticing that the pupil in the injured eye is much smaller than the other, too
Sending lots of healing vibes and :hug: :hug: :hug:
Hope there is good news soon .....
-
Hope all goes OK with the green men, keep us up to date Karen :hug:

Well this morning her eye did look better blood only covering middle of the eye but she has got a small spot appeared in her left eye too now. Anyway got to vets for 830am vet not in till 9 :-: Not Ross but lovely lady vet was abit stumped by her. She took her off to a dark room to examine her eye properly and couldnt see any damage to the outside. She is unsure as she is a 8 week old kitten, the vet has seen it in older cats with blood pressure of blood problems before but not in kittens. She said she may have had some kind of head trama running around with her brothers and sister so to keep a watch on her and keep her seperate and bring her back tomorrow. She is going to do some research tonight on kittens to see if she can find any answers and possibly do some blood tests and blood pressure test on her tomorrow. If of course she doesnt get worse in the other eye today otherwise its back down there. Ive got some pain medication if she needs it but to be honest she is not acting poorly at all eating fine and jumping all over the place :Luv:
By the way she has been named Tinkerbell by my daughter (5 kittens and 5 kids they name one each one less job for me to do!) But my hubby was calling her T yesterday saying she looked like the terminator >:(
Piccie this morning you cant really see it in bad eye because of light!
-
Aw bless her.... :Luv2:
Yep I can see it in both eyes and it all sounds kinda scary to me, but hey I am no vet! ;)
Positive vibes for this little darling Tinkerbell~~~~~~Stay well ickle kitty! :Luv: :hug:
PS...Wow thats some scarred up hand! I suppose the culprit/s were furry! :innocent:
-
Sometimes it happens in human being who have just coughed very hard!!! Im so glad things seem a little better :hug:

Sweet little girl - glad Tinkerbell is on the mend.
-
Well she is exactly the same tonight as this morning, but least she is not worse! Running around as though nothings wrong :Luv:
Will have to wait and see how she is tomorrow and what the vet says tomorrow :-:

yep I've had that, my sister's MIL asked her GP and he said it's if your blood vessels are close to surface. Hopefully just something like that.
-
It looks much less scary today, hope it turns out to be nothing untoward :hug:
-
Good luck for today
-
Thanks
Well little spot in left eye has dissappeared this morning but the right eye is still the same big splodge over pupil. Off the the vets at lunchtime to see what they decide to do.
She is still a lively little one though very cute :Luv:
-
I do so hope everything will be OK :hug:
-
Good luck at the vets. :)
-
Well lady vet had spoke to Ross this morning to get his opinion on what might be wrong with the eye. Its still the same may have thinned out abit or that just may be me hoping! Anyway we are hoping it was just a head trauma she had running around with her siblings and because she is acting completely normal i am going to monitor her and she is booked back in for Monday to see if it may get better over the weekend. They dont really want to do a blood test yet because she is so lively and small she would have to be sedated. But if it hasnt healed by monday blood tests are next. Other than a head trauma Ross mentioned different blood dieseses and even the dreaded FIP was mentioned :scared:. After today and portia :'( i didnt need to hear that so im trying to put it out my mind as she as said before doesnt seem poorly at all. So she is still isolated away from her siblings and the other foster cats i have in. Hopefully it will clear up over the weekend
-
Hopefully things are looking better for the little one Karen. May see you Monday as I am in with two girls for their spay ops.
-
Sending a little Guardian angel kitty :hug:
-
Hope her eye improves over the next few days xx
-

Lots of good wishes to the kitten and hope the eye gets better over the weekend :hug:
-
Fingers crossed you both have a good weekend.
-

-
Sending positive vibes your way :hug:
-
Positive healing vibes to this gorgeous little girl~~~~~Good Luck! :Luv: :hug:
-
Hope poor Tinkerbell is on the mend.
She is so adorable :Luv:
-
Lots of positive vibes for the vet visit tomorrow, hope all goes well :hug:
-
Well she seems better as over the weekend the blood splodge has moved down of her pupil and you can just see it at the bottom off the eye. I assume thats good, splodge does seem smaller as well. See what the vet says tomorrow evening :Luv:
-
Sounds good to me :) Will be thinking of you and her - all paws and fingers crossed :hug:
-
good luck from Willum Maisie and Whiskey. but on reading so far it does sound like it will all be ok in the end.
lets hope so.
-
Good news vet says that the blood is doing exactly what it should be doing draining away downwards. So looks like was most likely a bump she suffered and not something more serious.Just got to keep an eye on her to check it all clears slowly. She has been allowed to go back with her siblings so that will cheer her up :Luv:
Just need to find a lovely new home for her and the other 9 foster kittens and one mummy i have in at the moment :Crazy:
Thanks for all the well wishes.
