A Little Worried

[TheAurora]

So I noticed that one of Casran's eye's looks like it's bulging out a bit.

It's just at the top edge.

He doesn't have any kind of weeping or crustiness and his eye looks bright and healthy.

But the top edge you can see the paler part and when I look at him head on, the right is definitely bulging out more than the left.

It doesn't hurt him when I touch it.

Will post a picture later...

Vets buddy, just to get it checked out. Hopefully nothing. Tagging in @furryfriends (TEAS) @helen105281 for ideas x

This isn't Casran obviously but his eye looks the same as the guinea pig on the left (facing) in this image...

The one in the photo doesn't look bad, but could you post a picture of Casran's eye?

I agree with Lee that it needs checking, just in case. It could be the start of a retrobulbar abscess, they can come out of the blue. I would have expected a change in his behaviour if it was that though.

It doesn't look like Cedric in this thread does it?

At the moment I doubt he'll make it.

Wheezing. Heaving for breath. Going downhill rapidly. At the vet.

Ooooh, he really likes your ladeez!

He's asleep right now but I'll tell him when he wakes up. That'll be enough to give him something to fight for... and Jemima of course (who's bored with Casran being ill already).
