The cat always appears in a cold image, but a certain One day, they suddenly became Sister Lin, and they were always crying. Looking at the master, it was painful. Not only does the cat look distressed, it is also a big problem for the cat's facial beauty. But why does it cry? Let's find the cause first and then treat it.
The common cause of excessive cat tears is conjunctivitis or obstruction of the nasolacrimal duct. The owner of cat tears must undergo professional examination before treatment, in order to achieve a multiplier effect with half the effort.
1. Reason: The most common cause of feline conjunctivitis is infection with feline herpes virus. Symptoms: Cat conjunctivitis is usually a latent infection without clinical symptoms, but when the cat is stressed or its resistance is weakened, the virus activates and proliferates, and the cornea is inflamed and stimulated, causing eye pain, tearing and discomfort. There will be conjunctival keratitis in the eyes, and the owner will find that the cat has more tears, or is accompanied by squinting for a long time, and blepharospasm inversion or increased brown discharge. Treatment: The owner can give the cat a daily oral antiviral drug to inhibit the activation and proliferation of the virus. This drug can also resist stress. It is a safe and useful cat nutritional supplement and can be given for a long time. In case of secondary bacterial infection and eye discharge, broad-spectrum antibiotics and antiviral drugs can be used, and the chance of cat stress should be minimized in daily life.
2. Reasons: The causes of nasolacrimal duct obstruction are congenital and acquired: Congenital causes: mostly occur in purebred cats, the most common is the nasal The duct structure of the tear duct system is bent too much. Acquired cause: Obstruction or narrowing of the nasolacrimal duct caused by eye inflammation, such as conjunctivitis and nasolacrimal ductitis, especially those who have suffered from feline herpes virus. Symptoms: This can cause the cat to tear up too much and spill out onto the face. Treatment: Cat nasolacrimal duct obstruction can be treated with nasolacrimal duct irrigation under anesthesia. However, treatment for congenital problems is usually ineffective. For acquired nasolacrimal duct obstruction, doctors can perform nasolacrimal duct opening dilation and flushing with anti-inflammatory drugs in the lumen. For cats with secondary bacterial infection, antibiotics must be applied.
The cat is crying, the owner must take the owner to the hospital for early treatment as soon as possible, and don't let the owner become the Sister Lin who tears every day.
