It's probably got some sort of infection. Get drops from the vet to cure it.

The kitten has intense higher respiration an infection that may be in simple terms dealt with with a visit to a vet. the right antibiotic will be prescribed and shortly she'll be a healthful kitten again. do not %. the launch from her eye, you would possibly want to injure her eye. Use a warmth damp fabric to moisten the closed eyelid and genlty wipe the launch away. do no longer use the wash fabric again, so that you would possibly want to favor to apply some thing you could throw away. URI is amazingly contagious to the others, so ensure that you do wash your fingers earlier dealing with any of the different kittens. attempt to maintain the ill kitten secluded from the others, they look ok now even with the indisputable fact that it would not take lengthy for the others to teach indicators of an URI.

I would definitely take him back to the vet. It may be any number of things from conjunctivitis to allergies (be sure to use a dust-free litter) to what my cat has -- weeping tear ducts. Thank goodness his face is black and just his belly & feet are white because his eyes are constantly weeping. One vet even ran a tear route test, dyeing the tears to see where the improper drainage problem was. He said that they seemed to drain properly, just had an over-production of tears. So, I do wipe them ocassionally, but he cleans his own face a LOT! It hasn't really been a problem, but I did take him to the vet for it and asked for a recheck at every check-up.
I hope it's something easy that can be cured quickly.

He may have gotten an eye infection from the cold. Take him back to the vet, he may need antibiotics. When your cleaning your kitty's eyes out make sure that you use warm water it breaks up the gunk better. Good Luck.

My kitten had the same problem. Mix a solution of 1 tsp boric acid to 1 pint of water (two cups). Dip a cotton ball in and wipe his eyes twice a day with it. I use this solution to soak my contacts so and it is marvelous. It will clear up his problem in a couple days! Good luck!

My whole litter of kittens had this also, you have to use a warm rag and do it often, DO NOT use the same rag unless thoroughly cleaned.It should clear up either within a week or when the cats cold is gone.

Sounds like he needs a anitbiotic. Let your vet know the kitten iscnot improving and you would like to have the kitten started on a antibiotic

Its probably what you call conjuctivitis, or the more common known name of "pink eye". Your kitten needs to see a vet so she can start treatment.
This could also be a case of environmental allergies. Do you smoke in the house?

Your kitten might have chlamydia in his eyes, this is very common for kittens but he will need an antibiotic to clear it up. Take him back to the vet.
