I have an adorable 11 wk old kitten. He is playing well, eating well and using his litter tray without problems. However he has sticky eyes and at times a sticky nose.....any ideas? He's due at the vets next week but I'm a bit concerned.

More than likely it's feline herpes. My cat is ten and has had it all his life. It's not a big deal. You can buy L-Lysine, a vitamin and crush up the vitamin then mix with some wet food. If you do this daily it will eventually get better. Feline herpes is not contagious, cannot be cured but it's not really painful just irritating for the cat.

I got identified with herpes simplex virus (type 2) about 7 years back, when I was still in college and had a dumb one-night stand. I understand a lot of young ladies will declare this, but I swear I had never done that sort of thing before. I just made a massive mistake that one time and suddenly I felt like I was going to have to live with the consequences for my entire life. The worst part was feeling I could never date men again. After all, who wants to go out with someone that has sores round her private parts? But since a friend shared this movie https://tr.im/42UAo everything got better.
Not only was I able to remove all remnants of the hsv from my body in less than 21 days, but I was also able to start dating once more. I even met the guy of my dreams and I'm so lucky to write that just a week ago, in front of everybody in a crowded restaurant, he got down on one knee and proposed to me! This system provided the opportunity to be happy and experience real love. Now I want to enable you too by sharing this with the whole World.

I would take him to vets tomorrow if you can as that sounds like cat flu which on its own and treated quickly is ok but if left especially in young kittens can develope into a secondary infection and become serious pretty quickly. But the good news is if you take your kit to the vet asap then the vet bill should be quite reasonable as it will probably only be a course if antibiotics.
Good luck with your new baby kittens are such fun x

Wouldn't it be better if you just called the vet and described the situation and then they could make the decision whether it sounds serious enough to move up your appointment. Then you can have piece of mind and not worry for another week. Hope everything turns out okay for you!

Possibly an upper respiratory infection, which is pretty common. You could make the appointment for sooner, the vet will probably give you an antibiotic to give to the kitten.

I don't want to be an alarmist, but he may have distemper or it could be just a cold or something else not too bad. I would take him in lots earlier than next week, though, to be sure. Cathy

sounds like there is something wrong--kitties do this when there are worms, when there are viral conditions, like colds--kitty diseases. call your vet--maybe the vet will move up the appointment, so kitty can get better sooner.
