I noticed last night that my kitten was squinting one of his eyes. It definitely looked like it was bothering him. Then this morning I noticed that my other kitten's eye was doing the same thing, only hers was watering...Is this worth taking them to the vet?

yes, it is possible that they are developing sinusitis (which can cause their eyes to mat) or might have scratched their eyes. Either way they will need medication.

Yes, you should take at least one kitten to the vet and get some drops for the others. Think they only have an infection like pink eye in humans but it could be a sympton of something more serious such as distemper or feline leukemia.
I would get it taken care of.

Maybe, it could possibly be an infection in the eye. If it's bothering them then yes, take him to the vet.

If the eye is runny or gummy or continues to worsen, I would say yes, take them to the vet. They chould have some kind of eye infection and if it is not treated it could result in blindness. Would you go to the doctor if your eye looked this way? Treat your kitties the way you would yourself. They can't go on their own.

Absolutely. Either they have an upper respiratory condition or an eye infection that's apparently contagious. Get them to the vet pronto.

You can always give your vet a call and explain what is happening. They usually will tell you if they think you should bring them in or not

if two of the kittens are having these problems- then load them up and take them all..... it could spread to all of them
