Weird eye problem

SillyMangoX

Has anyone ever come across anything like this before.. every couple of months Peach gets a weird ball of jelly in her eye. I've never seen anything like it before in a cat. It's not like the normal sleepy crust they get, it's a skin coloured or red lump, it doesn't weep from the corner, just sticks on the inside of her bottom eyelid on one eye. It doesn't seem to hurt her and she doesn't mind when I take it out, no redness or soreness around it, just her normal eye "sleep".
Anyone ever seen or heard of anything like this?!?

I've not seen it in her eye but I've noticed Squeak occasionally has dried red 'sleep' at one of her eyes. Never really thought much about it tbh!

Peach always gets that sleep too but imagine the gloop being about 5 times the size of normal sleep and in the middle of the eye. It's so disgusting and strange!!

Oh, didn't realise you meant that big! Not seen it in my two but if it's not bothering her I wouldn't fret too much over it
Could it perhaps be something like humans would get, wind in her eye or something? Maybe if you write down when she gets it you might see a pattern.

yes I have a ginger cat tom and he has this on a fairly regular basis

seems to be worse in the spring summer months may/sept rarely see it after this time frame

no weeping or anything else and doesn't seem to cause him any issues
