    Corkscrew is going to the Whitecoats tomorrow. *updated*

    I have an appoitment for him at 3. His eye was looking perfect for a day or two and today it looks worse than it has, hopefully it isn't anything too bad and it can be cleared up with some antibiotics.

    Update: We just got back from the vets, the said his eye was a little swollen. They did a stain test on his eye which was really cool to watch, they put a liquid in his eye then used a blacklight to see if there were any scratches on it. They didn't find any, so the vet guesses that it's related to his corona virus. Corkscrew got sent home with some antibiotics and an eye ointment. So hopefully everything will clear up soon. Other than his eye the vet said that Corkscrew looked very healthy and that he was a very handsome kitty Oh, and Corkscrew also seemed very happy that the vet no longer needs to stick a thermometer up his bum because they got new ones that take the temp. from the ear.

    Probably just a bad case of conjunctivitis (pink eye) like we get! Some stronger antibiotic eye ointment and possibly an oral one along with it, should do the trick! Huggies for poor Corky!

    Poor Corkscrew. Prayers to you sweetheart and hopefully you can get some new meds that will do the trick. Please keep us updated.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    Poor guy. I had hoped his eye was like Scout's and no white coat visit or meds needed.

    Hope you feel better soon Corkscrew!

    Hope all goes well for Corkscrew!
    Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is a full management plan in which stray and feral cats already living outdoors in cities, towns, and rural areas are humanely trapped, then evaluated, vaccinated, and sterilized by veterinarians. Kittens and tame cats are adopted into good homes. Healthy adult cats too wild to be adopted are returned to their familiar habitat under the lifelong care of volunteers
