It happens! I thought that our Logan was a boy until we took a closer look. We kept the name though because Logan works as a pretty awesome female name, too. :) Have fun with your little boy!

Yeah, there's no way I'm reaching in to pull it out. There are too many risks. I do have some eyedrops that were prescribed to her after the surgery. I got the okay to use those, but they only succeeded in pushing the goop to the bottom of her eye. Maybe I can dab it out later today. It has to...

My cat Sasha came home from the vet today, and she has a large amount of goop in her eye. Because she had surgery on that eye earlier this year, she has no third eyelid to help wipe it away. Does anyone have any experience with cleaning goop from the actual eyeball? It doesn't seem to be coming...

Ugh. So she came home. She's walking around and purring, but there's a chunk of gunk sitting on her eyeball. I don't know how to get that off. It's on the eye she had surgery on a couple of months ago. I hope it's not anything to worry myself over, but I sure would like to remove it from her eye.

Oh yes. They know her very well. She's quite popular there and at the eye clinic. One of their sweetest, most cooperative, and frequent kitty patients. :) I just wish she didn't have to be a patient at all.

She wasn't moving this morning, so she went straight to the vet. She has a fever of 104.5 and pain in her lower abdomen. They ran some blood tests that came back fine, so she's staying at the vet for observation. I hope that it's just another FHV flareup and nothing more serious. It's weird to...

Sasha prayer-napping.

Cat party! Share your group photos! Here's Logan, Esther, Nigel, and Sasha to start:

Fairly new even though I have a number of posts already. I'm from South Carolina. We took in a pregnant Japanese bobtail wandering around our yard and named her Bunny. Coincidentally, she had Nigel, Sasha, and Esther (another bobtail) the day before Easter this year. :) Glad to be surrounded by...

Naughty Mr. Nigel!

I posted a thread earlier about losing an eye because I really thought my little Sasha would have to lose one. When she was about two months old, she came down with a terrible case of FHV (feline herpes). Her left eye rapidly got worse. Overnight, it had swollen to the point where her eye was...

The boys. Logan snuggled up to Nigel while the latter was sleeping. The girls. Esther groomed Sasha after the latter's cone was removed.

An oldie but goodie. Esther told Nigel a bad joke, and he didn't want to hear anymore. :P

One of my four-month-olds -- Esther. I've loved her huge, round eyes since she opened them for the first time.

I took in a foster recently (left), and these two boys became fast friends. Only one's sleeping, but this was too sweet a moment to not share here.

So my adoptive paternal instincts were correct! Her eye WAS responsive to light. I was able to take her for surgery today after being advised by the specialist to go ahead and open the eye. It ended up being a best-case-scenario operation with no complications. Sasha can SEE!!! I am elated...

We were advised to wait for it to heal some more before taking her again to see the specialist (and to give us time to figure out the direction we want to go). Her eye's looking almost white now instead of red. Every once in awhile, Sasha's eyes reflect light. Since she's blue-eyed, her good...

The verdict is in. She gets to keep her eye, but there are a few catches... Her conjunctivitis "healed" itself to where her third eyelid and her external eyelids have welded together. Her globe is still underneath, but we only know that there's a globe there and not what condition it's in. If...

That makes me more hopeful. He's adorable (love orange tabbies). She didn't go to the vet Wednesday because the vet that wanted to see her isn't as trustworthy as the other we go to, so we made another appointment. She and her siblings are going tomorrow for their boosters and the final verdict...
