My outdoor cat's eye is tearing with pus. What medicine can I use?

Question

We have an outdoor cat whose eye has been tearing consistently for the past few days. My husband cleaned it with warm wet compress, but it is still teary. I just noticed that there may be some puss. Is there away to get medicine for her? Pet's info: Cat | Feral | Female | spayed

If there is pus, then there is probably an infection/conjunctivitis. You can try Terramycin eye ointment. It is the only one that does not require a prescription. We are not allowed to write prescriptions over the internet for animals we have never examined - it's against the law. So, try this twice a day for 5-7 days and if it doesn't help she will need to see a vet. https://www.jefferspet.com/products/terramycin-eye-ointment
