I have watery eyes ! I have to wipe them out over a dozen times a day. I went to the doctor. He said I have dry eyes ! I do not wear contacts and do not see any eye infection. Did any of you have this experience ?

This sounds like your cat could possibly have a upper respitory virus (Feline viral rhinotracheitis) FVR Initial symptoms of FVR include coughing, sneezing, nasal discharge, conjunctivitis, and sometimes fever and loss of appetite. The symptoms usually resolve within four to seven days, but secondary bacterial infections can cause persistence of symptoms for weeks. Antibiotics are used to prevent secondary bacterial infections. There are no specific antiviral drugs in common use at this time for FVR. More severe cases may require supportive care such as intravenous fluid therapy, oxygen therapy, or even a feeding tube. Conjunctivitis and corneal ulcers are treated with topical antibiotics for secondary bacterial infection. L-lysine has been recommended anecdotally to suppress viral replication. Take your cat to the Vet and he can tell you whats wrong with your poor kitty. It is possible that it's just a cold but if it is thick creamy mucus chances are that its not. Better to be safe than sorry.

You went to the doctor's--didn't he tell you what to do about it? There are drops for "dry eye". You say they water all the time--allergies? If it's not possible to elliminate the allergin, try a low dose of benedryl.

Could be a bit of eyestrain so might be worth having your eyes tested.
