Hello,
My three-ish year old rescue, Sammy, seems to have pretty constant reddish-brown discharge from her eyes. No other symptoms, and she doesn't rub them or anything. The last time I took her to the vet, she reckoned it was conjunctivitis and prescribed eye drops. Well, the discharge stopped for a while but it's back again, and Sammy and her sister Suzie (aged four-ish, but the shelter they came from called them sisters) are due to have their (voluntary) rabies vaccinations shortly.
My question is, do you think I can have Sammy vaccinated even with the conjunctivitis (of course, I'd get the vet to examine her eyes again while we're there)? Or should I wait until it's been treated?
Thanks in advance,
Kutoja, the nervous first-time cat-mum.
