Update on Cubby's eye infection problem!!!

So I've previously mentioned how my poor little three week old Cubby has an eye infection.

After I called the emergency vet, I was told to apply warm compresses and if it didn't get better, call the regular vet.

Well the regular vet was all for the idea of warm compresses, so I just kept at it for the past week.


It has been a heartbreaking journey having a little tiny kitten screaming as if I'm torturing him as I apply compresses and rinse his eyes out three times a day everyday. (they were completely closing up DAILY, and when I would force them open, there would be discharge, a lot of slimy discharge).

Well.
Yesterday things started looking up:
Here is him yesterday:



Almost healed. Still a little smutsh that meowmy rinsed and cleaned.

Then here is him earlier today (just a couple of hours ago, no smutsh visible, but this was right after a cleaning, a "just in case" rinsing):



And right now here is that little angel all healed up!!!
I can't even begin to tell you how happy I was to walk in there and find him with NO crusties at ALL, just playing around with his brother and sisters all healthy and clean!!!




Look at those healthy beautiful little eyes.
I feel like such a good Meowmy!!!!!!!!!

I am so glad he is all healed up...he is ADORABLE!!!! He is lucky to have you!

Aw thank you!!!
You're from Quincy bellaluciabaci? I'm from Taunton!!!
I've never seen anyone even close to where I am on here!

Hooray for Cubby! He's looking good! =)

Wow, what an improvement from the pictures on your thread of the 3 week update!!

He looks great and I love his name, sounds all cuddly and soft.

I'm still fighting fleas...

Yeah , I'm still rinsing everyday, but I'm so glad it's better.
Poor lil angel!!!!!!


My SO named him because when he was born he looked like a newborn bear.
So we joked about our little bear....and then he named him Cubby.

they look so much better, im glad his getting better.
one of our kittens we was gonna name him lil bear aswell, because of the same reason lol. but we changed it to missy as she was female and not male lol.

hi! yes, I am from Quincy! I know, there are not too many south shorians on here! My kitty has been going back and forth with an eye infection too. I was so worried because it also came with a sneeze and the vet said it was an upper respitory infection. I have also heard that kittens are prone to some of these things, but it doesn't make us feel any better to see our sweet little kitties with these funny looking eyes!
