Cat's eye glued shut?

Use a wet warm wash cloth to soak the area for a minute or two, then try to gently open the eye. If no luck, soak it for another minute or two and try again. After you get it open, make sure you check it a couple of times a day and wipe away any goop that's gathering. If it keeps gooping up even after you've cleaned it for a couple of days, take her to the vet. It's not an emergency, she will probably need antibiotics but you can watch and see for a couple of days.

On a side note, many vets offer Saturday morning hours for the same cost as during the week. The bad news is these appointments often fill up well ahead of time but it's worth a call if you are concerned.

We human beings have the quality of being... humane.

What if you couldn't get your eyes opened and be able to see the world? Would you like it if your parents told you that they don't want to take you to the hospital because it's going to cost them a few extra bucks?

C'mon, tell them to be humane, the cat's been sick for a couple of weeks, there was ample time to take it to the vet to get that sorted (and to prevent what happened). If all that is required is a little bit of solution to dilute what keeps her eyes shut, it shouldn't cost much money nor take much time.

I have two cats and I would do that. If your parents still won't budge, what you can do is suggest that they take her, figure out what the difference is between normal and week-end costs and work out some repayment plan over the following weeks, that way your parents are not out any money and you've done right by your cat.

When cleaning your cat's infected eye ensure you do not use the same wipe to clean it's other eye or you will end up infecting the healthy eye.

How to Clean Your Cat's Gummed Up Eyes

Healthy cat's eyes should look clear and bright. Sometimes cats and kittens get runny or "weepy" eyes that become encrusted overnight and will need careful cleaning before an infection sets in, such as cat pink eye or feline conjunctivitis. Read the following article for instructions on how to clean your cat's gummed up eyes.

Difficulty: Moderate

Instructions

Things You'll Need

Salt

Water

Cotton swabs

Soothing Salt Solution

1

Boil a cup of regular tap water. Add a teaspoon of table salt to the boiled water, stir until it's dissolved and allow to cool to lukewarm temperature.

2

Dip the ends of several cotton swabs into the warm salt water solution and tap off excess water. Holding the cotton swabs in one hand and the kitten or cat in the other, apply the saltwater solution to one of the cat's affected eyes. When the eye is clean discard the soiled cotton swabs and wash your hands thoroughly.

3

Repeat Step 2 for the cat's other infected eye and do it again every four hours until all signs of infection are cleared up and the feline's eyes are bright and clear. Remember to always use separate swabs for each eye to avoid cross-infection.

She will survive but get her checked on monday just to be on the safe side.

I had a cat that had that and she was alright we never took to the vets but i will take her just in case.

In the mean time give her some treats and keep her as comfortable as you can.

There are other vets who don't charge for Saturday visits any differently. She needs to see a vet because she has an advanced respiratory infection and needs antibiotics now. She is feeling very very sick.

use a warm wet wash cloth to wet the area while you slowly open eye. the pus will drain and the cat will wash the eye on her own.
