Conjunctivitis and Cat Flu

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
My beautiful boy has had a stressy day and is now taking a long cat nap in the arm chair.

The vet checked his eye for ulcers which he didn't have and then she took a closer look and realised he had conjunctivitis! So he's got some drops 3 times aday (thatll be fun as I'm the only human here and Galileo is a little frisky)! lol.

I've got alarm bells going in my mind now if he has cat flu and is a carrier. Can kittens be carriers of cat flu? Can cats get conjunctivitis without it being a symptom of anything more serious?

The vet didnt say he had cat flu she didnt say he didnt have it I just kno conjunctivitis is a symptom of cat flu. I'm scared babys only 11 weeks old.

Can I get any reassurance from any one ..

Conjunctivitis can be caused by many things. I have one girl who gets it from allergies. She's also gotten it from getting something in her eye, dust probably, and then rubbing it. She's gotten it with an URI. Mostly, though, it's triggered by allergies, especially when the seasons change.
