Did you take him to the vet!? This doesn't sound good at all!! I hope he is okay now. I know this is from over a month ago.
I forgot to add the problem around his claws and he doesn't seem like he is suffering. (I know cats hide that well) There has been no blood in his stool that I've seen. And yes, I figured on the vet but I was hoping it was something I could treat myself.
Yikes!!! HELP is exactly what you need, not from us, though. You need to get your little guy to the Vets or an emergency animal clinic. ASAP!
Poor little guy is certainly suffering with whatever it turns out to be. For the life of me I do not know what to think about the eye problem. Has there been blood in his stools?
Perhaps he got into some caustic substance and that is the cause of the eye sores .The Vet is the only one to help--sorry!
Please let us know what this turns out to be. We learn from others, just like you.
Best wishes to you and your kit,
