What’s wrong? I just saw him run down the stairs, and when I came over his eye was swollen
From the photo, the cat's eye symptoms are likely conjunctivitis, conjunctival and eyelid edema from trauma, foreign-body irritation, or bacterial infection — an inflammatory reaction. If a vet is reachable, go promptly to avoid missing a hidden cause. You can also try pet-specific anti-inflammatory eye drops several times daily; recovery takes about one to two weeks. Use an Elizabethan collar and trim nails to prevent scratching; disinfect the environment weekly.

My 8-month dog started wobbling a month ago, got worse, now cannot stand, limbs stiff, urinates lying down; after I bought medicine and helped it walk, it can now walk but still wobbles
Wobbling, inability to stand, and not using the paw pads may be from nervous-system problems, neuritis, bone issues, or vitamin deficiency. Take the dog to a vet at once for a full exam including neuro and bone assessment, and possibly blood tests, X-ray, or MRI. Treatment may include medication, acupuncture, or physical therapy.
My dog has a large lump protruding from its anus after giving birth, and I don’t know what to do
A large lump from the anus after birth is likely rectal prolapse, where the rectum protrudes, from diarrhea, muscle looseness, overstrain, or birth complications. It needs a vet's surgical repair. While waiting, keep the dog in a clean warm place to avoid infection and further injury, do not try to fix it yourself, and do not delay, since prolonged prolapse causes tissue death and harder recovery.
After shaving my dog on Monday I noticed this—did the shave cut the skin or is it illness?
