Expert Answer

After a cat recognizes its owner, it usually shows the following signs. First, the cat often stays by the owner’s side, rubs against the owner’s legs, purrs, and gently scratches the owner’s arm with its paws.

Second, the cat may look directly into the owner’s eyes, which is a sign of trust and feeling safe. If the cat keeps blinking, that is also a signal that it likes the owner.

In addition, the cat may follow the owner around, constantly observing the owner’s behavior. Finally, the cat may curl up and lie on the owner, which is a sign of trust and attachment.

I read online to use saline, but none was available locally, so I bought levofloxacin eye drops and used them three times daily.
