Re: New kitten seems to have an infection

some kittens develop at different rates to their siblings - so yes that is normal.

Is the 'liquid', thick and green? If so it is an infection, if it is clearish, and dries to a black ish crustyiness then this is due to the face shape of your kitten and isn't an infection.

I've forgotten - but are they moggies? If so then you will probably have no luck trying to get any recompence from the breeder, as you won't have signed a contract. You could potentially take it through the small claims court but you would have to prove that the breeder knew there was an infection (if there is one) and that he/she deliberately mis-led you, and the hassle will probably be worth less than the cost of a vets consultation and a few eye drops.

Quite often a move brings out any underlying viruses that have been laying dorment due to the stresses involved - it doesn't mean that the breeder was remiss.
