What symptoms appear when a Husky has internal heat (heatiness)?
A Husky with internal heat shows more eye discharge, frequent tearing, dry stools, lethargy, and yellow urine. Adjust the diet to be light, encourage water, and feed water-rich foods and some vegetables to cool it down.
Why is the skin around my dog’s tear stains red?
Red skin under the eyes is likely dermatitis or eczema from excess tears keeping fur damp. Clean the eyes often, keep dry, and apply antibacterial ointment or spray; also find and fix the cause of heavy tearing.
My cat’s eye swelled after a nap but it’s now eating and seems normal—what’s wrong?
From the photo, the closed eye and increased discharge suggest conjunctivitis, from trauma, bacterial/viral infection, or irritants, with tearing, redness, and crusted lids. Treat by cause—remove irritants then use antibiotic drops for irritants; antivirals for viral; keep an Elizabethan collar until healed.
My cat lost appetite (won’t even eat favorite treats), eyes watery and barely open, sleeps all day
Poor appetite and tearing may mean an eye problem—infection, allergy, or injury. Check for trauma; if none, consider infection or inflammation. Irritating smells in the environment may also cause it. Feline rhinotracheitis is possible; if it persists, see a vet soon.
How can I tell if my cat’s eyes are sick?
Sick cat eyes may show redness, tearing, pain, light sensitivity, and increased discharge, with the cat scratching its eyes. Corneal disease, glaucoma, or cataracts reduce clarity and affect vision, causing bumps and bruises. See a vet promptly if these appear.
Rabbit Cold Symptoms and What to Do
Like other animals, rabbits can catch a chill from temperature changes or bacterial infection and rarely recover on their own. Here are the symptoms of a rabbit cold and how to help.
I bathed the cat at home a while ago, then noticed yellow nasal discharge with bad breath, but it eats, drinks, runs, and jumps normally. Is this a cold or rhinotracheitis?
From the symptoms it's likely just a chill and cold. Try pet cold and anti-inflammatory medicine, keep it warm, and supplement vitamins, protein, and lysine. If fever or eye redness appears, consider rhinotracheitis or calicivirus and see a vet.
I bathed the kitten at home once, then noticed yellow nasal discharge and bad breath. Is this a cold or feline rhinotracheitis?
Rhinotracheitis causes sneezing, runny nose, lethargy, fever, poor appetite, red eyes, and sometimes mouth ulcers, with clear then yellow-green discharge. If only runny nose with normal spirit and appetite, it's likely a bacterial infection from chill. Try pet cold and anti-inflammatory medicine.
Why does my dog have a fleshy bump at the corner of its eye?
From the photo, a suspected fleshy bump at the eye corner may be dacryocystitis from blocked tear ducts or bacterial infection, causing a red lump with increased tearing and itchiness. Take the dog to a vet for exam and treatment; the vet will choose the right measure, possibly surgery if severe.
What happens when a cat gets red eye?
Red eye is not a disease but a symptom of eye infection — redness, swelling, tearing, and discharge — that can affect vision if untreated. It may be conjunctivitis or blepharitis from bacterial or viral infection. See a vet for eye drops, antibiotics, and antivirals.
