Last August a friend of mine found 9 kittens in a bucket in the state game lands, she took them home and asked some of her friends to help bottle feed them....We took in 2 of them...they were about 3 weeks old....We kept the 2 of them till they were 12 weeks and old enough to be adopted out...one of the 2 kittens went to New Hampshire,( she drove all the way to PA for him11) and the other one went to one of my friends from church...
Thursday April 12th our Diego died unexpectedly :*( we think he was either poised or hit by a car or caught in a trap, he came home with a HUGE open wound on his foot, and went down hill quickly :*( lungs filled up with fluid and his kidneys failed :*(
The same friend of mine that took one of the kittens last September offered to give us the kitten back for the kids...We coul not resist since we all got so attached to those 2 when we were bottle feeding them....
Here is my question, My friend said that a few months after we gave him to her he came down with a upper respiratory infection and his eye was really red and swollen..and they took him to the vet and got meds for him, and his eye and infection cleared right up....but she said ever since then his eye will tear up from time to time...but it not red or swollen and all and the liquid coming out is clear....her vet never said anything about Feline Herpes..but im wondering...we have the same vet.....she said he gave her some ointment to rub in his eye...his eye is teary right now....bot not at all swollen or red or pussy or crusty....im wondering if it could be allerges? a blocked tear duct, or feline herpes....
Where he was living before he would go and play in the coal they had in their basement for their coal stove....and when we picked him up on Sunday his little nose was full of coal soot...so maybe there is something in there bothering it....
Not really sure what we should do since he is completly healthy and running and playing and eating and drinking....just looks like he is crying out of his one eye
im going to try and attach a picture...if you are lokoing at him straight on its the right eye....he is not itching it or rubbing it, and does not
act like he has a cold....its very odd!!!!
