I recently adopted a cat that had been at the shelter for a good long time (1 year +). When I got her she had a small bit of drainage under her left eye. The eye itself is fine, she can see and doesn't seem to cause her any sort of discomfort. It looks like some gooey tears and sometimes looks like blood tears. She will be going to the vet soon, but wanted to know if others might know what this is and if there's something I can do to help clear it up.
Also, she has recently showed that she has a tapeworm. I see the small segments near her rear every so often. I've heard that a lot of Vets use Droncit for de-worming and would like to know if anyone else has had a cat recently take this pill and what the possible side effects would be. I'm sure she wouldn't mind a bit of of the runs to get rid of those things, but don't want to put her through too much if the drug has limited success.
Thanks much.
