He's gonna fit in here TOO WELL!!

Oh he just looks like he was meant to be there! What a handsome guy! What vet do you use (not K.A.H.??). Maybe the lump is an abscess from a sore he had or something. Maybe another animal bit him?? Can you trim around it and try to put some betadine on it as a warm compress?? Definitely get him to the vet.


So, have you decided on a name?? Russell reminds me of Russell Crowe. He's dark and swarmy though. Heath Ledger is a rugged blondish/reddish strappy young actor though! He had long locks himself in a bunch of his movies. Or Liam, that's a nice name.

What really suits his personality? Sunny was a nice suggestion. I just think he needs somehting more regal and something that goes with his gorgeous colors and his big eyes. They were so large, soulful and sad...

But of course she used K.A.H. -- I have yet to have a foster come from there with a complete and accurate diagnosis. They simply stuck a cast on Angel and sent her on her way.... poor little girl had so many more problems that ended up needing major surgery (oh talking of her, I got an email from her hoomans this afternoon -- you should see how beautiful she is!)

I think he might have had something hit him (animal, human, etc) because thats the side with the pink eye. Too coincidental for me to have two facial problems on the same side and not be related.

The lump could be from a bacterial infection. When Creamsicle had hers, a growth developed on her lip and after her depo shot, it fell off. Pink eye should clear up in a few days as long as you're diligent in dispensing the medication. Good luck w/this sweet, handsome boy. He's found a wonderful, loving home.
