Hey guys,
I'm having problems (Again!) but with my kitten McFly this time. He was born on August 2nd, So he is only 7 weeks old and His left eye looks like it may have Conjunctivitis or Uveitis in it. But that's just my opinion, and I was wondering what you all thought?
He opened his eyes just 2 days after birth, And that same day Althea (His Mom) got Mastitis in one of her Mammary Glands and I had to hand feed him for 2 days and 1 night before she could take over again, So his immune system was probably pretty beat up. Then his eyes got runny and I kept wiping them with a warm baby wipe or wash cloth and I put Vetrimycin Eye Gel in his eyes and it seemed to help alot. But then one night I was looking at his eye and noticed there was a Dimple or a dent in his cornea and he was sleeping at unusual hours (For him), Some days he acts fine and other days he acts tired. I naturally kinda freaked out and waited until the morning (Saturday) to see if it was still there and it looked way way better. And yesterday was Sunday and I don't have a emergency vet around here but yesterday it was Red and Clouded over a little in the corner and I decided it was definitely time to get him to the vet's office. So today I called the vet and his eye is even worse now, Its almost completely clouded and that dimple is there still. So he is going in tomorrow (Tuesday) to see whats up with him. His Right eye is 100% fine but I doubt he can even see out of his Left eye.
What do you think this could be? And is this permanent? I wouldn't want him to be blind in his left eye for life of course. Also would this effect his Depth Perception? Because he seems to be a little unbalanced when it comes to jumping and climbing. Thanks for reading my book of an explanation. Any Help, Advice, or answers would be awesome
