Hello,
I visited a cattery with British Shorthair kittens a few weeks ago and the kitten reserved for me (the only female) had slightly crusty eyes. The breeder said she asked the vet and he said that the kitten is not ill. The breeder told me it's something to do with the formation or development or whatever of the tear ducts (some kittens' apparently develop later).
To get a few things straight: this breeder has a pretty good reputation and I will be getting a 1-year guarantee etc.
However, I'm due to pick up the kitten next week and I would like to know if this is something I should be terribly worried about?
