What Causes a Turtle’s Eyes to Swell?
In aquatic turtles, swollen eyes usually come from dirty water and bacteria; in tortoises, it's mainly vitamin A deficiency. Keep water clean and feed enough vitamin A. Turtles also need B6, E, and D for healthy skin, eyes, and calcium metabolism.
Which human eye drops can be used on a dog?
Human eye drops are generally not advised for dogs, especially without an eye exam. If the eye condition is unclear, do not use them blindly. In some cases tobramycin, chloramphenicol, levofloxacin, or ganciclovir drops may help, but only under veterinary guidance.
My dog was burned months ago; its neck still has crusts that won’t heal and other areas are red and itchy
From the photo, the neck symptoms are likely thickened keratin or scar tissue from the burn — a normal healing sign; no treatment needed if otherwise normal. The front-limb symptoms look like eczema; see a vet.
There is a film over the eye constantly
From the photo, asymmetrical eyes and tearing could be from trauma, foreign-body irritation, heat, cat flu, or eye disease. Clean the eyes with a wipe, use pet anti-inflammatory eye drops, and adjust the diet; if no relief, see a vet.
I feel like my cat’s belly is a bit swollen
From the photo, no obvious abnormality was found. If the cat shows no adverse symptoms, a slightly large belly may be normal; kittens may look round from overeating. Control portions with small frequent meals. If symptoms appear, it may be indigestion, parasites, or other disease needing a vet.
My Hamster Has a Lump With Black Dots – What Is It?
The photo shows an enlarged testicle - a clear sign of a male hamster in heat. The black dots on the rear are likely folliculitis. Clean the area with saline and apply erythromycin ointment. Avoid too much greasy/high-calorie food; keep the environment clean during heat.
My Kitten Has Reddish-Brown Marks at the Corner of Its Eye
The photo is blurry with no clear abnormality. Red-brown marks may come from heat, irritants, or blocked tear ducts, all of which raise tearing; oxidized tears turn red-brown. Clean the corner and watch for itching or more tearing.
Day one: cat couldn’t move or stand, limbs cold; after some glucose and water it recovered but now has seizures, drooling, dilated pupils, rapid breathing, and wobbly walking
Seizures, weakness, rapid breathing, and uncontrolled urination may come from epilepsy, poisoning, or heart disease. Epilepsy needs phenobarbital; toxin ingestion needs urgent vet decontamination. Heart disease can show similar signs — a vet exam determines treatment.
Why Is My Kitten Drooling?
Drooling can be a normal response to nervousness, excitement, or fear, or a sign of oral disease (gingivitis, ulcers, periodontitis) or digestive illness. If it comes with other discomfort, see a vet.
Is this a bug?
The photo shows a tick on the dog. Use a fipronil topical spot-on so the tick detaches, or dab alcohol, then pull it straight out with tweezers and disinfect. Clear environment parasites to avoid reinfection.
