I adopted two kittens who had recurring eye infections. The vet said it was a herpes virus. As they got older they stopped getting the infections. Interestingly one of them accidentally scratched me in the eye and I was prescribed the same ointment I had used on them.

Terramycin.

One of them has an eye that has been stuck shut in the am for 2 days and some yellow discharge. I was very worried. I watched this video and you recommended Terramycin, which I have. I used a tiny dot on a qtip and within one day, it's looking better. Thank you so much from the bottom of my animal loving heart! 💓

You can get Terramycin in most pharmacies and it's pretty cheap! Remember to put into the eye and not just on the eyelids. ^w^ 2-4 times a day.

[@Auremin]

Hi Hannah, our adult cat used to get eye infections frequently so our vet showed us how to treat it. He said to always clean from the outside corner of the eye towards the inside (towards the nose), instead of the other way around. The tear duct is in the inside corner so you would then be cleaning in a more natural direction. I hope you read this. :)

It doesn't look like that poor kitten's at all, but I'm worried 😕. His fever hasn't come back, and he's happy as ever. He's 10 weeks old, and was fixed right before I got him 2 weeks ago. Worried that he got an infection from a badly done procedure, but the vet who did it is really good. Any ideas? Thanks. Hope your little mew is OK.

[@renegadewren688]

I feel sad because I had a nursing mom and her two kittens come into my life. The mom and one of the kittens had upper respiratory and eye infections. The mom was fine after medicine, but one of the kitten's eyes never went back to normal. It looks like his third eyelid went over the eye and never retracted off. Both kittens are now healthy, happy, and thriving as adults, but I feel sad that perhaps, if I had gotten them sooner, I might have been able to save the kitten's eye. So thank you so much for putting your process online - if I ever encounter a kitten with an eye infection again, I'll know what to do.

[@BeingShweta]

Admire your effort dear, you're such an amazing person. Terramycin work well, is an antibacterial ointment to prevent infection. Just one thing, wiping the uninfected eye and infected eye with the same wipe, is a cause of concern as it may be infectious. Glad you're doing great work, helping many and inspiring others to do the same whenever the need arises. May God bless you 🙏.

anytime you see the white part of cat/kittens eye, known as the "Third eye" its an issue. and can be related to a much larger issue. that antibiotic she suggested works well but also any eye rinse works well as long as you are doing it up to 3-4 times a day.
