Perhaps you have heard concerning the Epa and flea preventive products? Why can’t everybody cared for felines just as much as we all do? It’ pretty troublesome just what exactly a number of these items are causing to our feline friends.

Do not put anything in the kittens eyes that isn’t FOR kitten eyes!!! Neosporin is a TOPICAL antibiotic ointment….topical means for the skin. It usually says on the tube DO NOT PUT IN THE EYES!!!!
Kittens should get vaccinated and that could prevent some of the viruses that they get. The kittens have some kind of upper respiratory infection and need treatment. Usually they need oral antibiotics as well as opth. ointment or drops. Yes it is contagous to other cats and kittens. You need to get them treated!!! Kittens can go blind if not treated in time!!!

Never force an eye open!!!No No No, the only thing you can use is distilled water in a very clean thing to use to flush the eye out with, a baby nasal aspirator works well. Distilled water is because there are no harmful mineral deposits in it. Also, if there is puss, that means infection, it needs vet assistance, an antibiotic. Also, there could be too many things wrong with them including distemper. If you can’t afford the vet, just keep the eyes as clean as you can using distilled water and a clean cloth and wipe that stuff off gently!! Thanks for helping the kittens. Do not use any over the counter medications made for humans in those eyes, you can cause them to bleed or blind them. call the vets office an explain this to them I bet they can give you a prescribed oitment from their office. If artificial tears is mentioned, don’t even bother looking for it, you will only find the stuff made for humans and contacts, it has boric acid i it and other harmful stuff, They are talking about purified water, distilled water, not dannon or anything else. But if money is an issue, a soft clean warm or slightly cool cloth to clean aroung the eyes, careful not to scratch the eyes with the cloth or towel. Do not use saline solution or anything like that. I just went through this with my cat/s eye that was irritated due to him getting into fiberglass insulation!

another simple home remedy that will not cure but will help them feel a little more comfortable until you can get to a shelter (and I agree you need too) is to clean their eyes with warm baby shampoo on a washcloth a couple times a day. This won’t irritate them but it will remove the crusts. I did this for my feral kitties.

Ok , for the record, the answer about the trash bag was uncalled for and cruel!!! but maybe you could try saline solution ONLY until you can get them to a vet. It sounds like upper respiratory infection.

The first answerer has it right. I only want to add that the SPCA and your local animal control might be able to help with vet bills. It is worth calling and asking. All they can say is no.
Ask if they know of any vet that will do payments.
Good Luck.

NO NEosprin, not for eys, pink eye they use euthromyacin ( sp?)
ointment.
Clean them with warm water on a towel several times a day till you can get to vet. Use different one for each eye so you dont spread it.
Call the animal shelter and see if they can refer you to a lo cost vet.
I would definietly call a vet though, they may have more of a sickness going on.
