How Do You Treat A Cats Eye Irritation?
Your cat’s eyes are susceptible to irritation just like yours, but she doesn’t have the ability to diagnose and treat herself. Help her out by determining the cause and assisting her in finding some soothing relief. With a few simple guidelines, your fluffy friend can be on the mend. Wrap your kitty in a towel before you attempt to treat her eye irritation. Cats do not like activity near their eyes and you may suffer some painful scratches, despite your helpful intent. Use a second towel around the first one if you need more security. Clean her eyes with a soft wet washcloth. Gently wipe the dried matter from her eyes, fur and whiskers. After you remove the discharge, you will have a better view of the eye, itself. Check for scratches on the eyeball, cuts to the eyelid or a foreign object, such as a piece of grass in the eye. If none of these is present, your cat likely has pink eye and you can treat her accordingly. Purchase an eye scrub made specifically for animals at the pet store
