Mucous in the nose and for a lack of a better word, and eye matter. Just like us, we have to blow our noses and get the matter out of our eyes. One of mine gets the nose boogers and not the eye matter and one gets the eye matter and not the boogers. One gets both. I haven't noticed either on my other 2 cats. They will take care of themselves. If there nose is warm they could have a little temperature which hardens it.

Almost all kittens get eye infections and they do need an eye ointment that only the vet can give you. Plus, they should go to the vet for a well-being check-up and to set up an appointment for spaying.

I'm afraid you'll have to take them to the vet and get an ointment. If you don't treat it, it can lead to blindness.

it's quite normal for them to have this. When they are a little older they will clean it out themselves. not to worry
