Friday night I was having a great time chasing my stick through the brush when all of a sudden my left eye began to hurt. When we got home I kept pawing at it. It hurt but hurt worse when I would paw at it. Finally I left it alone but mom kept checking at and Saturday afternoon she said she could see two small splinters in it. She called the 24 hour Vet line and they said I had to come in and be seen.

| Hey, there's a black cat in this bag! |
I did not feel so good till the next day and mom hung out with me all night till I was feeling better. I feel fine now but I have to have a bunch of eye drops and a pill to take every day for a week.
Mom says no more playing in that area where all the sticker bushes are. She said she will have to be real careful where she throws my stick cuz I am a wild man when I go after it.

Poor, Ryker. I'm glad everything turned out so well. Must have been nerve racking for you, too, Sandy. These boys and their sticks ... Bandit picks them up, no matter their size, and what usually gets whacked are my ankles! Have fun out there, Ryker, but be careful with those sticks!
ReplyDeleteYikes, that's scary. But I'm glad you were able to let your mom know something was wrong so she could get you to the vet before your eye got worse. Take it easy and I hope you fully recover in no time.
ReplyDeleteWow, those are tiny, but so glad they are out. You've got to close your eyes when you dive into those bushes, and find the stick by smell!
ReplyDeleteOh no Ryker!! Glad you are ok! Maybe if you look real sad when mom gives you the eye drops you'll get extra treats!
ReplyDeleteOh Ryker! Be careful with those beautiful eyes next time! Glad you are feeling better :)

Oh Sweetie! I am so sorry that happened to you. I hope you get well really fast and don't have any more pain. I hope your Mom feels better too. I know how hard it is on the Humans when we get hurt!

The joys of the emergency vet. We have been several times. We saw a little dog that ate a whole bag of chocolate and a cat with a fishing hook stuck in it's mouth. They must see it all at that place!
ReplyDeleteSorry about your eye, that sounds scary. Get well soon and no more sticker bushes!!

Ouchy! So glad your Mom took you to the vet and got those bad ol' stickers OUT!
ReplyDeleteBe good and take your meds now :)

Oh no, splinters in the eye, that sounds so scary. Luckily your mom spotted them and took you to the vet and I am so glad they are gone now. Phew, it's a relief to hear that you're feeling much better too. Listen to the vet and have the eye drops and pills everyday as they help you recover soon!
ReplyDeleteOw! Poor Ryker. I get crazy when a speck gets in my eye. I can't imagine how awful that must have felt. Feel better soon!
