We are hosting a mother (about 1+ year old) and two kittens (female) - about 8 weeks old all from a city shelter where they were in a cage...
The first week was perfect, and all was fine until on a second week (a few days ago) all of them started sneezing - but no other symptoms at all - they are playing and eating as usual (dry, wet food and mothers milk)...
Now I came home from work an noticed that one of the kittens has an acute inflammation of nictitating membrane (the left eye)!
* For this kitten the eyes seem to be a bit less open (on the picture/while holding she closes them much more then usually)
* From what I see there is no discharge from the eyes (see picture)
* The eyes are as moist as usual

I am very concerned - it is night now so no vet... by the morning I hope to find out what it is / how serious it is from a person/vet online who may know - perhaps you know something and/or can forward this link to someone who would know/could help...
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you all...
