How I Treat a Kitten or Cat Eye Infection at Home

One of the most common health issues with cats and kittens is infection of the eyes (conjunctivitis). There are numerous ways a cat's eye can become infected or damaged and proper treatment of the eye is crucial to ensure a complete recovery. In this video we will look at how to treat kittens suffering from conjunctivitis (infection of the eye tissue) as a result of Upper Respiratory Infections. The symptoms are swollen, reddened eyelids, oozing puss, and sometimes eyes sealed shut with crust. Remember, it is ALWAYS best to take a sick or injured cat to a vet for treatment. But I realize that many people do not have access to veterinary care. In this series of videos, I will show you basic care you can do at home to help your cat. Eye infections often require antibiotics for complete recovery, and an untreated eye can be permanently damaged and even in some cases cause death.
