Yesterday was bun cage-cleaning day. All seemed well, but last night I noticed that Mariah's left eye was wet and there was definite discharge. Her other eye seems fine and her nose is clear, but her one eye looks quite goopy. From what I can tell, the eye discharge seems to be clear, but there may be some slight discoloration to it. She's eating and drinking normally and she's pooping and peeing as usual. Is this something that warrants an immediate trip to the vet?
I initially thought she most likely got something in her eye, but with the babies and all of my other buns in the same room, I want to be sure that waiting is what I should be doing. She's very, very difficult to handle and I just know a trip to the vet would be incredibly stressful on her (and me). She is my foster and she's just very distrustful though she is getting better. And, honestly, I'd prefer not to run out to the vet, but of course would do so if necessary.
So, what do you all think?
