Pink eye?

Hi, I noticed on my 3 month old kitten that the area around her eye is pink/red, swollen, and watery. She doesnt seem to be in pain but she is rubbing it every so often. I'm wondering if it could be pink eye? Please help! Thank you :)

I agree with shannon781's comments. Your beautiful kitty needs to be seen
by a vet asap so you can get the medicine your kitty needs to get well.
I wish you and your kitty well.  Eve ( mother of Sam)

Yes, it actually is! It is most likely due to a herpes virus that a large percentage of cats have or chlamydia..they cause upper respiratory signs and conjunctivitis. Your little one could use some antibiotics to clear up any secondary bacterial infections.
