Well my kittens seem to have there eyes sticky.. or glued shut.. on of my kittens also has a scratched up head. i'd assume it's because of the other kittens... but he seems to be always crying.. and i always have to hand feed him. anyhow my questions are what can i do for his scratched up head.. and Sticky eyes.. could the stick eyes be really bad?

anyhow any help is appreciated

2 week old.. has this problem.. i have a question.. last time i went to the vet.. was almost 2 years ago..i'm not sure if this is certain but i was told that if u go for a vet visit.. just for a check up you have to pay right away.. i wanted to know because i don't always have the money on hand..

yes normally with the vet vist you pay while your there , normally there is a seeing charge.
but i dont know if this is the same in your area though.?
has your 5 week olds got access to the 2 week olds?

yeah they feed from the same mother.. because lulu doesn't take care of her babies.. so i took them to middie.. and they survived if i hadn't they would have died like the others.. and about the Vet i was just curious.. i guess i can always put it on my credit card.. it's not like 200 dollars to see a vet for a check up or anything

the scratchs might be the 5 week olds trying to play fight with the 2 week olds , but because i can not see them i wouldnt just take my advice i could be complety wrong. it could be flees? ring worm? a member here her kittens have that if you look through the posts maybe PM her and ask how hers started out. but all in all a check up wont hurt , least you will get an expert answer to what it could be.

Okay thank you very much, i'm gonna get it it checked out.. but i have a strong feeling that it's the bigger kittens scratching when they are trying to get milk to push them off or something similar.. anyhow thanks again
