What the!?

So apparently sometime during the night our boy Thor had some issues and when the hubby was doing checks before bed he found a bloody stool with a fairly large blood clot in his bin.

Thor was at the vet about two weeks ago for an eye infection and put on baytril for it, just finished the baytril about two days ago infact. Infection still not totally gone from the looks of it. Not sure if this has something to do with this or not. His appitite was as normal while on the antibiotics and has been eatting pretty normally.

As soon as I got home from work I checked his belly to see if it was dark for possible internal bleeding, and didn't see anything unusual. He has a vet appointment for 1:15 today.

I am still at a loss as to what is going on here, anyone ever have something like this? When I got home and checked him out he was racing around his bin like normal. (Literally, we were yelling at him because he kept going over to the corner with the bloody poop and hadn't gotten a good pic yet since it was still charging. Little bugger was pushing his hide around.) Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Take the poop with you to the vet appt. Blood from an unknown cause is always disturbing to us, but let your vet sort it out. As far as the eye infection, you may need a topical antibiotic, such as eye ointment or drops, at this point to continue treating that.

Well they did a fecal and he has worms. :/ I'm assuming he got them due to crickets. We're just surprised it got that bad where this happened, but he seems to be acting normal.

As for the eye, he gave us a different type of ointment to try since the first paired with the anitbiotic didn't solve it.

It's just one of those cases where I'm not totally sure how much of the info to take to heart, because he told my husband that we can feed leos fruit. Needless to say I'm just hoping there's not a bigger issue than worms that we don't know about since we lost one already (same vet) one the way home with the same diagnosis.
