Why Does a Kitten Have So Much Eye Discharge?
Excessive eye discharge in kittens usually points to a dusty environment, a diet that is too salty or low in water, a bacterial or viral infection, dacryocystitis, or feline herpesvirus (cat flu). Clear, watery discharge from irritation can simply be wiped away, but yellow-green, sticky, or painful eyes need a vet's diagnosis and targeted treatment. If discharge comes with lethargy or loss of appetite, see a veterinarian promptly to avoid complications.
