Hello, 1 of the 9 kittens had a swollen eye, so I took him to the vet. The vet said it was conjunctivitis, said some of the other kittens will probably get it, and gave me some teardrops. I have been applying the drops, but today the kitten has been sneezing A LOT, like 20 times a minute. I am getting worried because it seems like his breathing is a bit labored and he was drooling at the mouth. I made sure he was eating earlier today, and he was. He still seems to walk around and try and play with the other kittens, but his eye is still swollen shut and his 2nd eyelid is very red and irritated.
Is this normal for conjunctivitis or should I take him to the vet again tomorrow? The vet was very rushed yesterday, and I didn't get a chance to ask the questions I should have asked like how long this will last, whether the disease is fatal, ect... Also, should I pro-actively apply the drops to all the kittens?
I am worried for the little guy, though.
