    Maybe you need to have the vet SEE both of them!!! It seems about time, this is too long to see NO improvement with a treatment. When I found Chestnut, he was a tiny little one pound bag of bones with lots of ailments including gooey eyes. In 2 days his eyes cleared up! That was 8 years ago, so I have no clue what it was I was using. The vet gave him a look over and, as I said, he had LOTS of issues and lots of shots, pills, creams and gels for 3 or 4 weeks.

    The eye infection may NOT be related to the URI, it may be something else.

    Best wishes for these little ones!

    PM this lady - she is in Ann Arbor. Is there a vet school anywhere near you?

    I think she is a vet tech too - I could be wrong - but PM her and see what she says!

    Hi Candace, I just read Emily's PM and the kittens' eyes thread, and I sent her a reply. I suggested the vet school at Michigan State University in East Lansing, if she's anywhere near there.

    MSU has the Veterinary Teaching Hospital, which offers all kinds of specialty services including Ophthalmology. More information is available at http://cvm.msu.edu/vth/index.htm

    I'm not a vet or vet tech. I work some with a no-kill shelter in Ann Arbor, the Mosaic Feline Refuge, and I pet-sit some.

    I was SO glad to learn that the kittens' eyes are doing a bit better! It's about time for some good news after so much struggle and sadness.
