    NO. Nothing like that happened. And the other link was not very helpful because it's just screen shots. I have no idea how they put pressure on it to get out whatever is in there. Also I do not think it is pus or a cyst or anything. I think it's extremely swollen tissues. We squeezed---and...

    I cannot get to a vet (as stated above in post). Thank you for advice but i need specific instructions on how to get the goo out. I have wrapped her in a towel and done warm compresses the eye does not open. Do i pry it open with a tool? How do i hold her head?
