During a fight with Mater, Buddy took a rather nasty hit to the face. His eye was swollen shut for about 24 hrs and although it has opened up it still looks bald (see avatar) despite all the fur missing everywhere else on both of them having grown back. Any ideas why this would be? Will it ever grow back or will it stay bald?

If the injury occurred 24 hours ago then it is too soon to tell if the fur will grow back. How is he doing otherwise? Is his actual eye okay?

The actual injury was about 10 days ago. He seems ok, he's gets a bit funny if you get to close to it, sort of hisses and clicks at you, but he seems to see well enough. It was a bit icky for a day or so but we bathed it with cooled boiled water and it seemed to clear.

I would just keep an eye on it. I expect it will grow back?

I would think the fur won't grow back over scarring, so it depends on the injury.

That's a good possibility, I hadn't thought of that.
