Hi, thanks of using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Zenya is super cute! She does have puffy eyes. It could be from an allergic reaction to an insect bite or to allergies outside. The mainstay of treatment for allergic reactions is an injection of a steroid and an antihistamine from your Vet. They may prescribe an ointment for her eyes as well. I recommend that you set up an appointment for Zenya tomorrow with your Vet. I wish Zenya a speedy recovery!
