  1. some breeds of cats have more eye boogers and need to be cleaned with eye whipes from pet store and others only have alot of tears that cleanse the eyes and then there are cats with allergies it is best to ask your vet to check his eyes  


  2. Some cats are just like that, like Himalayans.  Others have mild allergies, and still others have herpes (I have three with that).  At your next cat check-up, ask the vet to check for herpes ( a simple test).  

    You need to know this, because sometimes the herpes becomes a huge, nasty problem, and needs to be treated immediately - or the cat can lose that eye.

    In the meantime, just teach the cat to let you gently clean under her eye with a clean tissue on a daily basis.

  3. Cats sometimes get 'eye boogers' or tears in their eyes the same as we do. But, like us, if it's excessive, then there's likely a problem that needs to be checked out by a doctor/vet.


  4. droping too much tears????

    Do you mean she has tears in her eyes all the time?

    She might have an eye infection of some kind.

    Eye boogers... very normal.

    Worried? yes and no.

    You might need to get some eye salve for her if she has an infection in the eye.  

  5. You should have your kitten examined by a veterinarian. Tears/ boogers could be a sign of an eye infection, foreign body in the eye or even an allergy. Your little kitty may need some ointment/medication for the eye to prevent further problems.

  6. If your cat's eyes are watering it could be allergies, or a minor eye infection, in which case an antibiotic cream should clear it up. However, if they are draining and matting, it's often a sign of something more serious and underlying disease.
