My female cat's eye leaks white liquid for over a year. What's wrong?

It could be minor infection (bacterial or viral), foreign body, stray eye lash or even an obstructed tear duct. Without a physical exam, it is difficult to determine definitively what the underlying cause may be. If the discharge persists, consider an exam with your veterinarian. If Ruth is rubbing ornpawing at the eye, place an e-collar (cone) on her until she sees the doctor.

Poor Shay! Her eye could be watering due to injury, infection, or allergies. The eye is such a delicate and important structure that any problem with it should be considered an emergency. That's because leaving it untreated can lead to vision loss. I would have Shay seen by a vet immediately to diagnose what is causing her eye to water so it can be treated.

It sounds like Squeak could have an eye infection. The eye is such a delicate and important structure that any problem with it should be considered an emergency. That's because leaving it untreated can lead to vision loss. You need to take her into a vet immediately to have her eye examined and diagnosed so it can be treated as needed. I hope this helps!

White discharge can be a sign of dry eye, especially if it is continuous. However, dry eye is not very common in cats. If the eyes continue to have this discharge as well as redness of the sclera (white part of the eye), then its best to have her checked by your vet. If the discharge resolves, then it is likely just a weepy eye and nothing to worry about. Best of luck with your pet Lucy moving forward. Take care!

Poor King! This can be a sign of an eye infection or an injury to the eye. Any eye problem is considered an emergency because leaving it untreated can lead to vision loss. I would take him into a vet first thing in the morning to get treated. Best of luck.

If he is blinking this eye excessively also, then I would recommend taking him to your vet to have the eye examined. It is very likely he has an eye infection and in need of antibiotic eye ointment to help clear things up. Eye infections are common in cats and can be caused by a mild scratch or ulcer on the eye. They can also be caused by mild viral infections (i.e. Herpesvirus, Calicivirus). I hope your furry friends eye issue resolves soon! Best wishes and take care.

The most common reason for a watery eye is infection though allergies are possible. Without an exam, it's hard to know. Since it's been going on a week, I recommend to have Pet examined by the veterinarian. Sometimes Lysine for cats can help as well as an oral supplement. I hope this helps.
