When a 14 year old lioness has vaginal discharge what do you do? Pyometra surgery. Essentially a spay procedure but with an infected uterus. Massive shout outs to the ladies who came out to help on a moments notice. Pyometra is a life threatening condition and needs immediate intervention when noted. To all those assisted: Rosas life was saved and we are all grateful for it. 🩷🩷

This is how we take eye pressure in animals. It is a tiny tip that gently bumps against the corneal surface and gets a reading. This little guys was elevated. He also has systemic issues with his thyroid and kidneys which are not helping. Sometimes they respond to eye medication. Sometimes they don’t.
