I'm a bit worried about my cat as he has had a watery left eye for over a week now.
I should point out that he is prone to having 'crusty tears' and I am used to cleaning them away a few times a day but this time it seems different. When I first noticed it he had an especially big clear tear blob and I could feel a little spikey hair just at the side of his nose under the affected eye. I thought at the time it might have just been hardened hair. I keep cleaning the area but it becomes sticky and wet again within a few minutes.
I'm probably going to take him to the vet next week but I have held off as I can be a bit of a drama queen when it comes to Alfie's health and was hoping it was just a thing that would sort itself out. I should add that the eye itself looks fine, the substance is clear and he shows no signs of illness or discomfort.
Has anyone any experience of a similar problem?
