Apple Cider Vinegar for eye infections in cats: Please remember. NEVER use the ACV at full strength. It's highly corrosive and I'm certain it burns like hell. I have 6 rescue cats and I use 1 capfull of ACV to 1 cup water applied to their closed eyes for the stuff that starts to build up and ultimately turn into something nasty. The same solution on a clean cotton ball for ears and again the same mixture on hot spots on 1 cat that is always getting them. Have also used the ACV and water solution on the same cat for contact dermatitis and have used it on myself for seasonal allergies (eyelids and nasal openings).

Well, so funny I have 9 cats and 2 chiuahuahas and I had the same exact problem. 3 of my kittens are white got them with servere upper respiratory infections and antibiotics cleared that up it took 6 weeks. BUt because of the upper respiratory infection they got servere pink eye and eyes were glued shut with puss yellow n then green used antibiotics from vet and 6mnths later their eyes still get a black drainage that has to be cleaned a couple of times a day. So I'm now using the Apple Cider Vinegar due to the vet bill are getting pricey and it clears up in one cat but goes to the next so I'm keeping it on hand and using it instead
