    Kitten with an eye infection
    How would you take care of a kitten with an eye infection without taking it to the vet? The kitten is only like 5 or 6 weeks old.:confused:

    I'm alarmed at the amount of kitten eye infection questions lately...

    The best thing you can do is just to bathe the kitten eye with warm water regularly to try and healp clean all the gunk out.

    He really needs to go to the vet though to get eye drops to clear the infection.

    Is this a litter that you bred or did you find the kitten?

    If money is an issue then it may be best to re-think keeping this kitten if you cannot afford to care for it.
