One of my rats, Poopsmith, seems to have one eye bulging quite a bit. I already know this can be a sign of infection or, let's hope not, a tumor, but does anyone know anything else it could be?
Does anyone have a picture of a rat with a bulging eye due to tumor or infection? I would love to look at it and compare it to my Poopsmith and see. I've always wondered how much bulge we're supposed to be looking for.
She is showing absolutely no signs of illness beyond the bulge. She's eating, drinking, has complete use of her body and no porphyrin. Should I take her to the vet now or would it probably be safe to wait until my vet appointment on Saturday that I'm already going to to get another rat's teeth trimmed (Naturally assuming nothing gets worse)?
Thanks everyone.
