Wednesday is going to be a very nerve-wracking day even for me, since I have many rats being dropped off at the vets. Cecil and his tricky tumour removal, and the 3 babies with terrible eye issues that we should hopefully get an answer to their issues and what is going to be next for them.

Yara

will be thinking of you all and sending good vibes, and good thoughts your way and hoping for good news on those bubs with the eye issues.

Special prayers for Cecil. :heart:
 
Waldo's eye seems to be the least bad-off, at least from the photos - Yara's is definitely the worst, poor lovie.

I'm going to be rocking in my chair, pulling at my hair, or just curled up in the fetal position until we hear about Cecil... oh, good luck you sweet boy with the adorable mohawk! There's a universe of fairy ratmothers who are rooting for you really hard!
 
Good luck to all of your guys - and good luck to you! I'll be thinking of all of you tomorrow, refreining my urge to get back home so I can finally read that Cecil is safe back home and that the nakies aren't too bad off!
 
Hang in there Shel. They have had the best pre-prep they could possibly have gotten, in my view, so I believe that their chances are really good for pulling through this. :rose: :love6: :heart:
 
The rats have been examined and/or treated.

Waldo - I thought only one eye was affected but it is both.
He had a LOT of debris removed from under his 3rd eyelids and both eyes have ulcers, but he might regain his sight.

Melvin - both eyes affected. Lots of debris, ulcers and right eye ruptured, will be sent home with eye meds and next week it will have to be removed.

Yara - left eye, lots of debris, eyeball *may* be ruptured, cannot tell just yet.

Cecil - maybe 50% chance of surviving surgery, they wanted me to be sure before they went ahead, and I gave it to them the go-ahead. I am totally pacing in my head now. :(
