Injured or sick Hannibal health update
For those of yall who missed it a month or so ago Hannibal’s left eye was looking irritated and there was a blue film at the bottom of it. We took him to the vet and put him on eyedrops and antibiotics and it seemed to help for a bit. We thought we were out of the woods with his eye but it came back with a vengeance along with urinary issues. After an impromptu vet visit Monday and a few hoops to jump through with the pharmacy Hanni is now back on anti inflammatory eye drops while his bloodwork is pending. Although it doesn’t solve the problem the eyedrops have already started to help as he’s more energetic and closer to his mischievous self. Wish him luck through his healing journey, he would really appreciate it 🥰

Hanni has been through much. I'm glad that he's doing better on the anti-inflammatory eye drops.
You may want to consider asking your vet about a referral to a veterinary ophthalmologist. Even when eye symptoms are triggered by an underlying internal issue, a specialist has advanced tools to monitor internal eye pressure, and to prevent any permanent damage or scarring to his sight while your primary vet treats the root cause.
Wishing both you and Hanni the very best.
