Oh my gosh, Cass! I am so sorry that happened. Don't get to down though, you tried.

My husband had a scratched cornea a few years ago. He had to use special eyedrops and put ointment in his eye every night. I hope you are taking good care of your injury. Seeing is very important.

oops, I'm bossing you again.....

Oh Cass. I'm so sorry; for everything. Certainly it wasn't Ewok's "fault." What a stupid thing to say...euthanizing him!
But I do worry about your eye. Corneal abrasions and ulcers are painful and serious and nothing to fool around with...did an opthamologist see you in the ER? Make sure you follow the drs insturctions re: meds., drops and ointment. Poor pup....I'm so sad for you and for him. I know how much you wanted it to work and I also know how fast you can fall in love with a furry one. But it can be tough acclimating a kitty to having a dog in the house. He was just being a puppy and Ewok was responding out of fear. You'll see, Ewok will come around. He's probably feeling traumatized too right now. You tried your best The good part is that the pup went to a good home, to someone you know, with a doggie pal and kitties experienced around dogs. And you get to visit and be his Auntie. And you'll see, one day you'll find the right doggie for your home; don't give up just yet. {{{HUGS}}} Sandra

I'm so sorry. I haven't been on since Friday so I just got caught up. I know how much it can hurt to have to give them up. The time will come when you can have the dog you want. Do be very careful with your eye. I think I would go to an eye doctor just to make sure everything was alright. And Ewok might have been feeling jealous or threatened is why he did what he did. He'll come around. Sometimes life doesn't seem fair, I know that for sure. But then later, you see it was for the best. And at least he went with someone you know so you'll know how he's doing. I wish someone I knew had gotten my rescue dog because I sure wonder how he's doing all the time.

Thanks everyone. I feel a little bit better today but still find it hard to look at his pictures. I just hope he does OK, and everything works out for him. I think he had a little pitbull in him by looking at his face, which made me want him more because I just adore that breed so much.

Well they stained my eye at the ER and used this eye machine to look at it, which is how they found out I messed it up. What sucks is that I keep forgetting about it and rub my eye making it hurt worse. You should have seen it this morning. It was so swollen. Now it's not so bad and I have been anal about putting the drops in my eyes. I have also been putting the pointment on and just soaking the wound when I take a shower too to make sure it stays clean.

Thank you all for your concern. The doc said it would take a few days to heal but it should eventually heal on it's own with the drops.

Cass, do take care! I'm sorry it didn't work out, but don't blame yourself! Or Ewok.

I've been attacked twice now by my own cats. First time was by Chance.. he had an unknown hormone imbalance and lept right at my face. I still have scars. The fact that I was wearing glasses was the only thing that kept him from scratching my eye.

This past November, I brought in a stray dog and Logan freaked out and bit my finger badly. Didn't need stitches but I had to make frequent trips to the ER for IV antibiotics.

I hope you heal quickly with little scars. *HUGS*

Fear not, the little pup is with someone you trust. Someday you'll be able to have a dog.
