I just recently moved across the country and I've found a vet nearby that was highly recommended to me but haven't been there yet.
for the past few weeks Leeloo's eye has been running, its like a sticky grey color goo that sits in the corner of her eye that sometimes will turn crusty and black when it runs or builds up too much. but it doesn't seem to bother her at all. it bothers me that its there because she never used to have it.
I've been cleaning out the eye for her but it seems like I am constantly doing it, not a few times a day but every time I see her.
I want to take her to the new vet I found but I'm nervous because she has always been a TERROR at the vet. no exaggeration (she's a tortie) my old vet in my old town knew her from when she was a newborn and was very nice and understanding about her. but I think even he wouldn't have been able to manage looking in her eye, I don't know how a new vet is going to hold her down long enough to give her a real exam.
does anyone have any advice as to what might be wrong with her eye to begin with? and any advice on how I'm supposed to bring her into a new vet?
thanks so much
