Caring for a Kitten’s Eye Discharge
If orphaned kittens have discharge in their eyes, act quickly.
Gentle Cleaning
Use a clean, soft cloth or cotton ball dampened with warm water. Gently wipe from the inner corner outward. Avoid soap, alcohol, or harsh cleaners.Assess the Situation
Note whether the discharge is clear, white, yellow, green, or bloody, and check for other symptoms such as lethargy, sneezing, or loss of appetite.Seek Veterinary Care
Thick, yellow, green, or bloody discharge, or any other signs of illness, require immediate veterinary attention. Clear or white discharge in an otherwise healthy kitten still warrants a checkup.Continue gentle cleaning and maintain hygiene under your vet’s guidance.
