Why is my new Persian cat suddenly lethargic with eye discharge?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Cat | Persian | Male | unneutered

I got a cat 2 days before. It's a male Persian cat. The first day he was active and played the whole day. From the next day it only tries to sleep all the time, I'm worried. There is brown discharge from his eyes, the person I bought from told me it goes off after vaccination.

I would recommend bringing Yori to a veterinarian. He may have a virus or something else may be going on with him. They will be able to perform a complete physical examination. Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
