Me neither! I guess what happens is inflammation/blood in the issues of the iris will add a red tint to it. So in a cat with very light blue eyes there's a very noticable color change.

Wow, what a roller coaster! I'm so glad Apollo seems to be improving so quickly, and doubly-glad all the tests came back negative.

I didn't know eye color changes could be a symptom of something off, either, but I'll definitely add it to the list of things to watch for.

Again, very glad Apollo's improving!

That's great news! I was hoping it would be something simple such as an eye infection. Also good news is that, unlike Athena, he won't have to wear the dreaded cone!
