![]() ![]() ![]() One of mine had conjunctivitis (Im not sure if thats the same thing as pink eye) and I had to put cream in her eyes to clear it up. Im guessing the cause of it was something got in her eyes and caused the irritation. In my case, I suspect it was catnip as my roomate had sprinkled some over her head a few days before I noticed her eye bothering her. Certain illnesses such as feline herpes can also cause it.

![]() ![]() ![]() Ive heard pink eye is caused by bacteria getting in the eye and causing an infection. Im not sure tho because this came from a family member. ------------------ IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() Conjunctivis is a catch all diagnose meaning the eye is red and inflammed. It can be caused by a lot of things such as irritation, bacteria, or viruses. It's hard to say for sure what caused it in your cat, although it was probably a bacteria. IP: Logged |
