A simple way to clean up tears in a Persian cat is to wipe the eyes with a hot towel every day. I found the method introduced by netizens on the Internet. You can mix some starch and boric acid powder in half and then pat them on the tear marks. The powder can absorb stains and act as a bleaching agent. In fact, as long as you pay attention to cleaning every day, it can be easily removed.

Another method is to take a tablespoon of boric acid powder and dissolve it in a teacup of boiling water. Stir well. Buy a small container and put the cotton pads in it. Pour the solution onto a cotton pad and slowly pour off the excess solution. Close the box. Then take one of these cotton pads every day to bleach, remove tears, and prevent the build-up of tear streaks. Remember to replace the makeup remover once a week to prevent bacterial growth and infection after a long time.

For the stubborn stains on the cat's face, it can be removed by using a half-mixed powder of starch and boric acid powder as mentioned above; first, make a paste with water. Apply the goo to the stain carefully and let it dry. After it dries, brush it off and wipe it clean. Be careful not to get the powder into your eyes. Dropping these powder particles into the eyes may cause eye ulcers. Boric acid powder is not difficult to find and can be bought in general western pharmacies.
