Hello. If your kitten is sneezing and has discharge from her nose and eyes, this could be either viral or bacterial. If it is viral the discharge is usually clear and Baby Orange should still be eating/drinking and playing normally, unless she has a fever. If the discharge is yellow/cream/green then there is likely a bacterial component that requires antibiotics. Depending on your area there are different antibiotic choices for bacterial infections including amoxicillin/clavulanic acid or doxycycline. I would recommend having your kitten checked by a vet to see if antibiotics are required, and which is the best for the area you are in, and also to get a proper formulation and dose, as improper antibiotic use can make Baby Orange very sick. Good luck with her!

You need to take Blossom into the vet for treatment. She sounds quite ill, and the puss coming from her eyes indicate an eye infection which can only be treated by medications from the vet. Young kittens can be very fragile and go downhill quickly when sick, so it's best that she sees a vet right away to prevent that from happening. Please take her into a vet now. Best of luck.
