Illinois, moving to Arizona in 3 days. Will be driving with Meego in the car.
Current Problem - The current problem you are concerned about.
His eyes seem to be infected and he will not keep them open. He walks around the cage with his eyes closed and I am worried he will soon not be able to find food. Perhaps the misting system sprayed him in the face and hurt his eyes? Or maybe he has an eye infection? I have been using warm water with Q-tips to help him clean out his eyes and he seems to like that. I also see him scratching his eye up against the fake vines.
