Default Ollies eye

Hi I'm sorry I've not been around much lately so Ollie and Willow updates have been a bit thin on the ground. However last night when Ollie woke up for his usual playtime I noticed one of his eyes was slightly smaller than the other, I asked Tony for a second opinion and he said I was worrying over nothing as he is very active and loves his food. I have come home from work tonight and I he came out when he heard me cleaning out his potty corner and I noticed his eye was very much the same no better or worse, so I'm wondering am I right to be concerned as I don't want to stress the little guy out with a trip to the vets.

I would appreciate some second opinions please.

I might try bathing in in a saline solution. It could be that one edge is slightly stuck with sleep making it appear a bit smaller and bathing with a cotton ball will just release the lids.

Sounds like he had a sleepy eye! Glad he's fine!
How's Willow?
I take it, Ollie's staying with you forever?

Hi Willow is fine thank you she is forever my little sweetie and Ollie is my little darling. Tony is completely smitten with Ollie but every now and again he says he is not staying, but seriously I have grown attached to the little guy and I not prepared to give him up.
