Update on Foot's eye
So I took her in at 4:30.
Doctor says her eye is fine--couldn't find any damage to it at all, and was hard pressed to find a wound anyplace else. It looks like Ula just tagged the fleshy part of Foot's under eyelid and managed to hit near a main vessel. Looks clean, though. No swelling.
Doc went ahead and gave me some drops Tobramycin Ophthalmic solution, 3 times daily, and then some Clavamox drops to put in her food during breakfast and dinner, just to make sure.
The 'worst' news was that she told me to take Foot off moist food and keep her strictly to dry for now on. She's showing signs of gingivitis already (!) and the dry will help with that.
Other than that though, Foot is okay if a bit subdued. She let Ula greet her and went and hid in the bedroom after following Ula into the crate (maybe Ula was whosing her it wasn't that bad? I dunno). Right now they're seperated so that Ula doesn't get into Foot's spiked food, and Foot doesn't get into Ula's moist food.
