My cat has dry sleep in her eye. Is this normal or a concern?

Question

Hi, it's been happening frequently but my cat keeps getting dry sleep in her eye and I'm not sure if that's something to worry about ?! Pet's info: Cat | British Shorthair | Female | unspayed

Cats can get the sleep discharge that humans can when they wake up in the morning. As long as Nala's eyes are not red, she doesn't have excessive discharge, and it's not greenish in color, I would not be worried about it. It is always ideal, however, to have any eye problem checked out by a vet just to be safe, and you can have Nala seen by a vet this week for a health check.
