Higher ear temperature isn't necessarily fever—it may be local inflammation. Check for redness, discharge, or itching; if so, get a smear test. If ears look clean, take a rectal temp with petroleum jelly; over 39.5°C means fever—try physical cooling, or a vet fever shot if ineffective.

Clean the eye with a pet eye-care solution twice daily and apply anti-inflammatory drops and ointment. Seek a vet if other symptoms appear.
