Hello everyone!
I've never really posted on a forum before but I find them quite useful for getting answers. I have a wonderful orange furball and his eye randomly started troubling him today. He was sleeping and then woke up with a lot of squinting and some swelling. He does paw at it and there are some issues opening/closing. I used a tiny amount of salt water and cotton swab to try to keep bacteria at bay. There is no third eyelid yet. Should I rush him to the ER? OR can it wait for a vet appt tomorrow? I've been up all night not sure what to do! Any help is appreciated!
