Please add a prayer for Badger. He islong hair gray and white boy from the hoarder’s bunch. His eyes have been swollen shut since arriving here and when they finally did open- they didn’t look quite right. There was a cloudiness in the eyes and the pupils especially in his left eye- look non-existent. I took him into the vet today and it turns out that after the eyes were numbed and slowly forced open he has massive coronary ulcers in his eyes. He has a 60/40 chance of losing both eyes and a 90/20 chance of losing one eye. 🙁 He is on saline drops and special antibiotic drops every three hours around the clock- We should know in 7 days if these aggressive treatment will save his sight. The vet said he is not sure what sort of aggressive strain of the feline-herpevirus this group has but it is rather nasty to some of the kittens. I am to put the saline drops into his eyes first so that the eyes will open then once they are opened, I am to put the antibiotic drops into his eyes as well. I will follow it up with a teaspoon of baby food just so he does have something to look forward to. He has the potential to be such a beautiful, loving kitten.
Poor baby! I’m sending him a lot of purrs.
That poor little guy. What is wrong with people that they can let that happen to animals under their care?
