Redness below my cat's eye?

Question

My cat's eye is a little red just below it and it also looks slightly swollen. He's a kitty we just got a week ago. He's about two months old. Any ideas?

Answer 1

It might be a sty, and you must get to a vet to have him look at it.  You can not get a proper diagnosis on the internet.  Do not use anything on the cat's eye, leave it alone until the vet can take a look at him.  Delaying this can cause permanent injury to the eye or to your cat's eyesight.  Please call asap.

Answer 2

It may be infected, if so you will see redness, swelling and inflammation. I recommend a visit to the vet.

Answer 3

Infected. He has to go to the vet for a checkup and medication.

Answer 4

Maybe conjunctivitis, which is inflammation of the conjunctiva.
