Is a cat scratch to a dog's eye and emergency or can it wait until the morning? (It's not Kato.) The dog's eye is red and watery, but doesn't seem painful.
Thanks!

It can *probably* wait until morning, but have her keep a REAL close watch on it (no pun intended). If the dog starts rubbing its face/eye on either the carpet, furniture, some other object, or with his/her paws, either have them go to the vet immediately, or get an e-collar on the dog's head until they can get to the vet in the morning. The dog HAS to be seen, sooner rather than later, so don't let them put the vet visit off.
