Re: 8 Week Old Kitten With Weepy Eyes - Please Help!

I do this for my cat Merson as he has a sensitive eye.
Try not to use cotton wool or cotton wool pads if possible as a fibre might get into her eyes.
Also, welcome to the forum.

Thanks for your help.
I have also heard a cold tea bag in water can help with eye infections in kittens as well?
