Cats love to explore
all kinds of small, tight, dark and damp spaces to find their prey. This tight
areas can be dangerous especially if it involves shrubs, branches, or other
sharp objects. This is one of the ways cat’s can actually injure their eye or eyes.
Check your cat’s eyes when you pick her up, feed her, or sit with her watching
a movie. This can be a good routine to ensure the eyes are healthy. If you see
any signs of irritation or weepy eyes then your cat could have injured her eye.
Of course, your cat could also just have an eyelash in her eye or some other
debris. A simple scratch could be the problem. Other signs of possible injury
include green or yellow eye discharge, squinting,
excessive blinking, and an avoidance of bright lights. Please contact your animal hospital
Lagrangeville NY to discuss the eyes or make an appointment for an in
office visit.
