Why Your Cat’s Eyes Are Inflamed and Tearing Up
Eye inflammation is a common feline eye problem that won't clear up on its own, so it needs attention. Signs include constant tearing, swollen red eyes, and thicker discharge. Mild cases can be cleaned with cat-specific eye drops, but a vet check is the safe move when symptoms appear.

How to Kill Fleas on Your Cat
Fleas are tiny jumping parasites that irritate the skin and spread illness. For light infestations a topical spot-on treatment works; for larger ones a vet-approved external parasite product plus an Elizabethan collar prevents poisoning. Regular deworming and a clean home stop them returning.
Why Are My Teddy Dog’s Eyes Red?
