Kitten with draining eyes

Question
This is a follow-up question.  My kitten has a golden drainage from his eyes and has sinus issues.  I told the ohter doctor I gave him 1/3 cc  penicillin.  

Her response was that the 1/3 cc was too much for a kitten, but then continued to tell me that I should give him the same amount twice a day for 10 days more!  I don't understand that?  She did say it was viral.  What can I do to help him, he is an outside farm kitten.

If you are having trouble understanding your veterinarian, perhaps you should ask her to explain what she was trying to tell you.  I am unable to tell you what she wanted because I have no idea what she was trying to tell you.

If your pet has a discharge from the eyes or nose or both, he most likely will need antibiotic therapy.  Talk it over with your veterinarian so the kitty can get the help he needs.
