Yesterday Connor's eye was watery and sore looking, so today I took him to the vet. It doesn't look good :(
His eye is cloudy, and the vet says it looks like the cornea or the lens is "separating" or something from the infection. He could not find any visible scratches or anything. Connor also had a very high fever, and he was so upset that the vet had to sedate him for the examination.
He had an injection today, and is on meds for 5 days. If it is not any better after 5 days, then I will have to pay for a "HUMAN" opthamologist to go the the vet clinic and examine him. (We don't have a vet here with this specialised training).
There is an 80% chance that he will lose his eye. I am devastated - my poor baby already is deaf and tailless - now if he looses an eye too, Ally will REALLY pick on him.
This afternoon he missed the litterbox too (he was still groggy from the sedation), now Ally has peed in the same place. She is hissing at him all the time, because he smells funny from the vet.
Please keep Connor in your prayers - he has been through so much already :(

Poor Connor, I keep my fingers crossed for you!
I hope the vet and the doc can help you- but if it comes to the worst we know you will be able to manage it- you are a strong boy!
Ally- when your brother is sick it would help your mom if you were a very good girl! (But regarding the fact that Tigris is sick now I must admit Filou is NOT of much help as he reacts rather aggressive :rolleyes: )
Kisses and scritchies to both- hugs to your meowmie- please keep us posted!

Poor Connor! :( Hope the meds work, and his eye doesn't need to be enucleated. I wonder if Ally scratched his eye when you weren't around? Keep us posted please Julie. :(

Julie prayers are on the way for sweet Connor. I have often wondered what I would do if Magoo started losing his hearing. The fact that he is already blind would make this a difficult thing. Please give Connor {{{HUGS}}} and give yourself a big {{{HUG}}} too! Please let us know how he's doing.
We are praying for you Connor and Julie!!

Tonight,the Found Cats,will double thier prayers,for Connor,and pray that he does not lose his vision.
Ally Cat's Mommy

Hi everyone,
Thanks for all the prayers and positive thoughts! Connor is still not his usual self - he is moping around, and last night he was vomiting a bit (I think from the sedative yesterday - it didn't agree with him). Thankfully he has stopped vomiting now, and his eye is more open and less swollen, but still looks very cloudy.
He has also gone from being a docile boy to being a holy terror when I try to pill him (probably because he is in pain, so is not coping with things as well as he usually does). Today I had to grind his pill up and put the powder on my finger, then rub it in his mouth :( He wasn't happy. Tomorrow I will get some Pate to mix it with.
I am hoping that the cloudiness in his eye calms down soon, so maybe he won't lose his vision in this eye, or lose the eye all together.
I'll keep you posted - thanks again for all the prayers - it means a lot to us all!
Tubby & Peanut's Mom

So glad to hear the swelling is down. Hopefully that is a good sign that the meds are working. Sorry he's such a terror when pilling. I'm dealing with that with Jack right now too and it most definitely is NOT fun. :(

I know this thread is two days old but I'm just getting caught up now. I'm so sorry I was not here to offer up prayers but I can pray now that sweet Connor retains his vision. Positive vibes coming you way from Canada.

Poor Connor, he probably just doesn't understand why Mom is torturing him when he already feels bad!
Still hoping his eye heals completely!
