Can I give my cat eye drops?

That's a tricky question. The technical answer is yes, because most of the drops that we use are human-derived, although some are made specifically for cats. Should you look in your cabinet and pick something out from CVS? No, definitely not. There are more specific reasons for different things we use for cats in particular, and you can make the wrong choice. If you need to flush an eye, sterile saline would be fine. But get your cat in so we can make sure there's nothing else we need to do.
