Hi,

Bonster is just a 3 year old intact male cat with a skin problem. Rarely does skin disease of this nature lead to an animals death. It is much more likely Bonster has ear mites, skin mites or an allergic skin disease of some kind. These problems are itchy and the scratches are likely evidence of self trauma. See your doctor with Bonster and get his skin problem diagnosed and treated. He will be more comfortable and you less scared once you have. His eye discharge is likely to be unrelated but may be a chronic condition your doctor can help you with.

Sincerely,

Hi....I am commenting instead of answering because I think we need some more information and clarification from your post.

First, when was the last time your cat saw a veterinarian?

Next, you are living in Florida...any possibility that your cat has a flea infestation?

What kind of diet is he on?

Does he go outside or is he a strictly indoor cat?

Is there a reason you have not neutered him yet?

Help us out by answering these questions and I am sure we can help you find some answers.
