Phoebe Has Eye Issues

[Apollo86]

Phoebe only came home less than a week ago and has already had to visit the vets.
The conclusion was conjunctivits and she has to have Isathal eye drops 2x daily for the next week.
(She had been rescued from pets at home where she was being bullied by her cage mates)
Will be going back to pets at home tomorrow to get them to refund me the vet costs.

Is she ok otherwise, breathing ok? and eating ok? if so the drops should help clear it up quickly.

Yes, there is definately nothing wrong with her appetite! Blink and the food is gone!
Breathing is normal too.
Hopefully she will be okay in a few days.

Brilliant. Hope the drops help.

Brilliant. Hope the drops help.

Thanks.
I have just given her the 2nd dose for today and i think i looks better now than it did last night.
She ate all her dinner too, so her trip in the car and being man-handled does not seam to have fased her!

Isthal drops usually work well. Eye infections can get worse very quickly without treatment. Well done for noticing quickly and getting to the vet. Hopefully you'll have no problem with P@H paying up!

P@H went smoother than expected!.
Went in, showed the vet recipt and they apoplgised and gave me the £47.18 for the vets bill straight out the till. They didn't even ask to see the reciept for when i purchased Phoebe!
