Unfortunately, this sounds as if Gerome is very ill and needs to be seen by a veterinarian right away. If he is bleeding without stopping, having eye color changes, and is unable to breathe, these can all indicate a potential severe illness or medical emergency. I'm including some links that may help make vet care more affordable, and although they are more US-centric, they may still provide you with some ideas so Gerome can get help ASAP. https://www.humanesociety.org/resources/having-trouble-affording-veterinary-care
