Eyes


I've noticed over the past few weeks on and off Molly has had some green liquid/gunk coming off her eye in the corners. Some more came off today and I tryed to take some photos but they didn't come out to well as she kept moving









She was also sick this morning and had an upset stomach as we fed her a small amount of wet food last night from Sainsburys own brand

Re: Eyes


I would bathe in cooled, boiled salted water, but if the discharge is green it could indicate an infection, so may need antibiotics. Let us know how she gets on.

Re: Eyes


I sometimes find that a cold tea-bag helps when my pets have a poorly eye.

Re: Eyes


Mild conjunctivitis can sometimes be resolved by bathing the eye & not needing a trip to the vet for treatment. (I would normally do that for 3 or 4 days prior to seeing the vet if nec.)
however if she is also vomiting, she is obviously a bit down, so a vet check would be my answer.
