My cat’s eye swelled after a nap but it’s now eating and seems normalโ€”what’s wrong?

From the photo, the closed eye and increased discharge suggest conjunctivitis, from trauma, bacterial/viral infection, or irritants, with tearing, redness, and crusted lids. Treat by causeโ€”remove irritants then use antibiotic drops for irritants; antivirals for viral; keep an Elizabethan collar until healed.

My cat lost appetite (won’t even eat favorite treats), eyes watery and barely open, sleeps all day

Poor appetite and tearing may mean an eye problemโ€”infection, allergy, or injury. Check for trauma; if none, consider infection or inflammation. Irritating smells in the environment may also cause it. Feline rhinotracheitis is possible; if it persists, see a vet soon.

I bathed the cat at home a while ago, then noticed yellow nasal discharge with bad breath, but it eats, drinks, runs, and jumps normally. Is this a cold or rhinotracheitis?

From the symptoms it's likely just a chill and cold. Try pet cold and anti-inflammatory medicine, keep it warm, and supplement vitamins, protein, and lysine. If fever or eye redness appears, consider rhinotracheitis or calicivirus and see a vet.

I bathed the kitten at home once, then noticed yellow nasal discharge and bad breath. Is this a cold or feline rhinotracheitis?

Rhinotracheitis causes sneezing, runny nose, lethargy, fever, poor appetite, red eyes, and sometimes mouth ulcers, with clear then yellow-green discharge. If only runny nose with normal spirit and appetite, it's likely a bacterial infection from chill. Try pet cold and anti-inflammatory medicine.

Why does my dog have a fleshy bump at the corner of its eye?

From the photo, a suspected fleshy bump at the eye corner may be dacryocystitis from blocked tear ducts or bacterial infection, causing a red lump with increased tearing and itchiness. Take the dog to a vet for exam and treatment; the vet will choose the right measure, possibly surgery if severe.

What happens when a cat gets red eye?

Red eye is not a disease but a symptom of eye infection โ€” redness, swelling, tearing, and discharge โ€” that can affect vision if untreated. It may be conjunctivitis or blepharitis from bacterial or viral infection. See a vet for eye drops, antibiotics, and antivirals.

Why is one of my cat’s eyes red and swollen?

From your description and photo, tearing and increased discharge suggest conjunctivitis from foreign-object irritation or impact. Clean the eye with saline or eye wash, then use chloramphenicol drops. If the cat scratches, use an Elizabethan collar to prevent worsening.
