We have a suspicion that our cats have herpes, but we are unsure. It started with bringing two kittens to the house, whom were quite sick a sneezed a lot when we found them. After a couple weeks my cats had ulcers in their mouths and on their noses with fevers. After recovering from that, two of my cats had an issue where they would gag whenever they'd try to eat or purr. Well, one of those two cats now has an eye issue that flared up today. I've never seen her eye like this before ever in my life. She has been quite stressed due to a new cat we introduced to the house a few months ago now. She has definitely been the most negatively affected. I'll post some photos and would just like an opinion if you guys think her eye issue could be a flare up. Her eye is very pink around the edges and appears swollen. There was a bit of green gunk in it as well. I gave her some regular eye drops we had from awhile back from the vet and cleaned her eye out with a warm, damp cloth. We give the two kittens (9-10 months old now) and one of my older cats that got sick the second time with this one who now has the eye problems, L-Lysine daily because the kittens sneezed quite a bit, but they did not have any discharge or runny eyes or noses whatsoever. It's been over a month since they've been getting their L-Lysine and the sneezing has basically stopped. I gave the one with this new eye issue L-Lysine today and plan on giving her a daily dose as well from now on since she has been most affected. Here are some pictures. Sorry she kept moving around.
