Please take a warm damp cloth and clean the discharge away. This looks likes the infection is in or near her eyes. Please take her in tomorrow to get treatment so she doesn’t get worse. She’s so young I’m worried she could get worse quickly, and perhaps lose sight in that eye. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to help you care for Catty.
