I have a 10 day old kitten with a little goop in eye, is this a virus?

Question

I noticed the eye was stuck shut with a little hard crust and so I keep wiping the eye with a moist warm cotten ball but I see a little white goop in corner of the eye....I can't get into the vet for 2 more days ...so I thought I would post the question..

Answer 1

use milk to wipe the eye. it could be an infection in the eye or start of a respiratory infection. vet will know for sure.

Answer 2

thin put some antibiotic cream on it this happen to me one time it work

Answer 3

It shouldn't be an issue if its not cleaned out then it could cause an infection. Usually the mother cleans the eyes out. The kitten may need to be checked if it continues in large amounts then have him checked. It will probably clear up.  

Answer 4

sounds like a upper respiratory infection.  Keep doing what you are doing.  The ve will have to treat him.  poor kitty!
