I would have Kee Kee seen by a vet immediately. He could have a severe eye infection causing the pus. The eye is such a delicate and important structure that any problem with it is considered an emergency. That's because leaving it untreated can lead to vision loss. I would take Kee Kee into an ER vet or find a vet on call to see him now to have his eye diagnosed and treated.
