We got a kitten who was a barn kitten and he developed a cold and eye infection very quickly. Then I as well as my two kids developed an eye infection. The cat has been on three rounds of creme the eyes clear up and then as soon as I stop the eye treatment it comes back. Same with us! The infection we have is different from anything I have ever experiences - the ye looks a little pink or cloudy but nothing very obvious but they itch and sting a lot and are irritated - it comes and goes. Now we all have this cycle going on and I can't seem to cure anyone!!! I am positive this came from the cat to us.
