CATDOLL : How to remove cat's tear stains?

How to remove cat tear stains:

1. Clear the nasolacrimal duct. The nasolacrimal duct is a tube buried in the inner corner of the eye to the nasal cavity, which can help cats drain tears and reduce the phenomenon of cats crying. The owner can keep the cat's nasolacrimal duct smooth by massaging the eyes, thereby reducing tear marks.

2. Use hot water or saline to clean the stains. If you find tear stains on your cat, wipe them off immediately and take the initiative to dry the tears to prevent oxidation and evaporation that will make the tear stains worse.

3. The owner can regularly give the cat some anti-inflammatory and antibacterial eye drops, such as chloramphenicol eye drops, erythromycin eye drops, etc., which can also prevent and improve the cat's tear marks.

4. If the cat's tear stains do not improve for many days and instead tend to become more serious, you need to seek medical attention promptly and take medication or surgical treatment in a timely manner.

Causes of tear stains in cats:

1. There are problems with the diet, such as feeding cats low-quality cat food, frequently feeding cats high-salt snacks, etc., which make cats get inflamed. When cats eat too much difficult-to-digest, nutritious food, their detoxification ability will be weakened, and tear marks will appear.

2. In the process of raising cats, some pet owners tend to neglect the cleaning and care of cats' ears, which leads to ear mites and chronic ear diseases in cats, which can cause cats to cry frequently and aggravate the tear marks of cats.

3. Parasitic infection: Sucking nematodes can live in the host's eye for up to a year, continuously irritating the eye in the conjunctival sac and causing tear stains.
