My cat Tiger's left eye looks very bad. He was fine this morning and early this afternnoon. We came home andI called the kitties for dinner and he seemed
a little down..not his jumpy self. I looked at him and his eye is full of white pus and it looks cloudy. I cleaned it with a wet cotton ball and I did not see
a hole or laceration. it is not bleeding. My vet is closed,I tried to call him and i do not trust these 24 hour emergencies. They are crazy for what they charge to go see them. If he was bleeding or in pain I would go...but he seems just quiet. I wonder if he got into a tussle with one of the other kitties and got a good scratch to the eye. I have antibiotic ointment, but I am scared to try it without consulting a vet. I would love to declaw the kitties but there are alot of feral cats around here and other wildlife and I am afraid that if one gets out by accident,they would not have a shot to protect themselves.
Any advice?
