Rattie update

As you may recall, last Friday, Small Pets-Big Hearts took in some more rats. One of them, Lilly, arrived with a cloudy eye and was taken to Dr. T. at Seneca Animal Hospital. It seems as though there was a laceration (cut) to the eye that goes clear through the cornea. It was most likely an accidental wound from one of her sisters, which most likely occurred during play. She's on medication to help with healing, and provided she doesn't develop glaucoma, she should heal just fine. Unfortunately, it looks like she will not have any sight in that eye even if it heals perfectly.

Lilly will need a little extra love and patience. With eyesight problems can come some skittish behaviour- a hand coming in fast from the blind side can be scary! Once her eye is healed, Lilly would love a forever home with someone who will love her despite her disability. Help us find her a home!
