My cat has a lot of eye discharge that won’t wipe off – what is it?
Heavy eye discharge may be from heat, cold, eye disease, or calicivirus. Clean the eyes; if only discharge, try a light diet and more water; see a vet if nose signs appear.
My cat has been tearing and blinking a lot since I asked in February – is it serious?
Based on the photo, your cat likely has a chalazion from inflammation or third-eyelid hyperplasia. Use anti-inflammatory eye drops, or seek surgery if it is the third eyelid.
Excess yellow eye discharge, red swollen eyes, often can’t open, visible film over the eyeball
The photo shows eyelid and conjunctival inflammation, cause unknown. See a vet; if not convenient, clean with saline or pet eye drops and apply pet anti-inflammatory drops, with a collar to stop scratching. If no improvement, see a vet.
What does a normal cat eyelid look like?
A normal eyelid is pale pink, with a smooth edge and no lumps; the third eyelid stays hidden except when very relaxed or ill. Any color change, swelling, pain, protrusion, discharge, or trouble opening needs a vet.
My dog has diarrhea with bloody water, and its eyes have some red blood vessels and discharge
Diarrhea with bloody water in dogs can be caused by acute hemorrhagic enteritis, parasite infection, foreign-body damage to the gut lining, or a viral infection. Red eyes with heavy discharge may simply be bacterial conjunctivitis, but could also relate to a systemic infection from gut inflammation. If the dog is unvaccinated, consider distemper or parvovirus and see a vet promptly. If a vet visit is impossible, symptomatic meds like pet amoxicillin-clavulanate, neomycin sulfate, or cefadroxil with bismuth carbonate for diarrhea, plus neomycin or hydrocortisone eye drops, may help.
What happens when a Bichon Frise catches canine distemper?
In the early stage of distemper, a Bichon usually shows fever, increased eye and nasal discharge, coughing, reduced appetite, and lethargy. As the virus affects more organs, it may develop rapid breathing, worse coughing, diarrhea, vomiting, and bloody stool. In the late stage, distemper often attacks the nervous system, causing convulsions, ataxia (unsteady gait), and seizures, which can lead to coma and death without timely treatment.
Does dry heaving count as enteritis? Also, there are some fluffy bits of skin around the eyes – could it be a bit of white-eye disease?
Common signs of enteritis in turtles include lethargy, reduced appetite, unformed or abnormally colored droppings, and refusal to eat. In severe cases the eyes may sink, the skin may become dry and dull, and muscles may loosen, eventually leading to death from systemic failure. In early stages, lactobacillus tablets or berberine can help adjust gut flora, with anti-inflammatory drugs as supportive care; severe cases need oral or injected antibiotics. The blurry photo makes it hard to judge the eyes, so white-eye disease cannot be confirmed, though a white film over the eyes is possible.
How to deal with a cat’s feline rhinotracheitis (cat flu)?
If a cat is confirmed infected with feline rhinotracheitis (cat flu), promptly give it interferon injections and, under a veterinarian's guidance, supplement lysine. For the cat's eye problems, pet-specific anti-inflammatory eye drops can help relieve them. In addition, give the cat more nutrition to boost its immunity. Feline rhinotracheitis is a viral infectious disease caused by the feline herpesvirus, and cats with lowered resistance easily get infected. The owner should take the cat to a veterinary clinic for regular vaccination to lower the chance of infection.
My cat came home yesterday and I noticed something off about its eyes; I don’t know what to do now
From the photo, the cat has unequal eye size (asymmetric), likely from irritation, eye disease, cat flu, or trauma. If a foreign body (lash, dust) irritates, it inflames and won't open—wipe it out with a clean wipe; it recovers. If no relief, see vet to confirm and treat.
What counts as a disqualification for a Dogo Argentino?
Disqualification means failing purebred show standards (build, color, teeth, bite, nose, bone). A pure Dogo is white, 60–68 cm, with dark eyes; too much color, light eyes, short height, or bad bite disqualify.
