Hi there! Ebb (Smaller Female) and Flow (Larger Male) both aged 5 years old. Ebb and Flow spend all day everyday together. They'll follow each other around, cuddle up with each other, demand food from their foster parents, and are not scared of any loud noises. They are very inquisitive and nosy. They want to explore everything together and will both get in very deep sleeps snuggled up. They're comfortable around humans and any visitors that have been to the fosters house, they tolerate and do not mind a little head stroke, especially if they're being fed their favourite food – which is parsley. Now the important bit – Flow has an issue with his eye. He has seen the vet (we can share the vet report) and we have had a second opinion from two other vets – Flow has cataracts in both his eyes with scarring to both. His upper eyelids are too long. The part closest to his nose has rolled over on itself, which is causing discharge because the eyelashes are rubbing against the eye. It was discussed about surgery to shorten the eyelids, however there is no guarantee that this would completely resolve the issue. So after getting second opinions, it was decided that given this was not having an impact on Flows quality of life, the surgery was too much of a risk to his life. In the meantime, management for now is to use a thick lubricant from a human pharmacy. This is to be applied 3 times a day. And since the fosters have been doing this there has been an improvement and they give him the eye-drops daily when they notice his eyes looking sore. Flow is booked in to have his booked to have his tear ducts flushed with our vets.
