Pamela: I'd be interested in hearing about your feline herpes cats and their symptoms and what you do for treatment. I have several with chronic "runny" (clear) eye, (eye slightly more closed than other eye), some with the chronic snotty nose, a couple that have like a chronic chest congestion. Then I have also had two who did the eye "meltdown" as you called it - eye in one swelled so bad so fast that her head swelled up - and consequently had to have eye removed. I have another one currently who has an ulcer on the eye and we are treating with just antibiotics, lysine, vit C and B as she is too small and too young to have the eye removed. It really hasn't gotten any worse, but then it really hasn't gotten any better. I'd be interested in your vet's decision to sew the eye shut and how that is going to help heal the eye. If you feel that the group wouldn't be interested in reading about all the gory details, feel free to write me off list. Hurt not the earth, neither the sea nor the trees. S.
