What is the easiest way to put ointment in cats eyes? Sweetie has running eyes and vet gave an antibiotic ointment plus Duralac. Sweetie just closes her eyes tight and its like I'm not getting anything in. The vet's office says it gets in her eyes, but as soon as I let her go she cleans her eyes. Its gotten so that in the morning she hides from me. I don't chase her but just wait for her to come into the kitchen. Once I grab her she doesn't fight, she's such a good girl. She loves the Duralac. I put this about a half inch on her food and she gobbles it. She's had an eye problem off and on for the year I've had her. Would appreciate advice on how to hold her, her eye open and put the stuff in. I think I need 3 hands.
