I have an 8 month old (Ursula) and we recently introduced a new 5 month old (Buffy) to the household. For the most part, they have gotten along. They are kept separate and have supervised playtimes together, but these can get a little rough. Today I noticed that one of Ursula's eyes is having trouble opening. I can't see a scratch or anything on her eye itself, or on the skin around it, but it is noticeably more closed than the other at any given time. My husband says that he thinks it might look kind of swollen, but we can't tell. She has always been sensitive to being touched, so it's hard for us to get a very good look at it... should I take her to the vet ASAP or wait a day or two to see if it is just swollen? I do not want to play games with her health, but we don't have money to make unnecessary vet visits.
She is not in visible pain. She does not seem to like it if we go to touch her head, but like I said, she is moody about when she does and does not like to be pet, so we're not sure if she is just being antisocial.
Please advise! Thank you!
