So we recently noticed that one of Pax's eyes was not right. It was closed and oozing discharge. We had thought it was infected and began to treat it with the ointment we had left over from one of the cats' eye infections. It started to look better. But lately it seemed more likely that the real problem was that the eye was injured rather than infected.

We saw the vet today and indeed he said it is an eye injury. He also said it looks like it has been trying to heal on its own. He gave us two types of drops to administer to help it heal.

No wonder the poor little thing bit me the other day when I tried to apply eye ointment! She was in pain. I'm so glad we took her to the vet today! I expect she'll feel much better soon.
