Message Body:
Sad that you show more responsibility and love for an anomal than your mom, I commend your spirit and heart. First off, feline leukemia is very bad, and is like having AIDS but is in a cat instead. In other words, should the leukemia positive cat had had a bite or scratch or the opposite to another cat, possibility of giving the disease to another cat.
As for the swollen and red and icky eye of your kitten, I suggest a vet , first and foremost, but mom is lacking in that being done, so next best thing, cleaning and keeping the eye sight hopefully. I recommend a saline/salt solution made for cats/dogs/puppies like Opticlear available at a pet area in Walmart or K-Mart or pet shop. Pour some on a clean white cloth or disposable white tissue and clean one eye from the inner canthus, to the outer area of the eye.Discard. Then, same to the other eye, discard tissue or get another area of cloth. The object is to cleanse the eye, keep it clean, but prevent infection in the other eye by transferrence, accomplished by using a different cloth area or tissue for EACH eye SEPARATELY. Keep this up until perhaps the eye improves. If not, I suggest you contact a Humane society in your area for help. Perhaps mom has financial problems which is why she cannot afford a vet at this time. It does happen unfortunately. I wish you and kitty well, he sure is lucky to have you care for him. God bless.
