Cat with left eye discharge, pink conjunctiva, increased unilateral blinking for 24 hr no

Thanks for reaching out about your cat's eye issue. From what you describe, it sounds like your cat might be dealing with conjunctivitis, commonly known as "pink eye." This is an inflammation of the conjunctiva, the pink membrane lining the eye. It can be caused by infections, allergies, or irritants like dust.



For at-home care, gently clean any discharge around your cat's eye with a soft, damp cloth. Use a different section of the cloth for each eye, even if only one seems affected. Make sure your home is free from irritants like strong cleaners or cigarette smoke, as these can worsen the symptoms.



Keep an eye on a few signs that might indicate a more serious problem: if the discharge becomes green or yellow, if your cat is squinting or pawing at the eye a lot, or if you notice any swelling or changes in eye appearance. If you observe any of these, it's best to seek professional advice promptly.



Since you've noticed these symptoms for a day now, and especially if they show no signs of improvement or worsen, I'd recommend booking a video consultation with Dial A Vet. A vet can visually assess your cat and guide you further.
