Our cat has her inner eyelid sticking out about a third of the way across her eye. She can still see, but I know it should not be like that.

What should we do ?

Thank you for your advice

You need to take her to the vets Julieanne.

She may have got a tree branch in her eye which damaged or injured the inner eyelid, or there could be a problem of some other kind.

The inner lid is supposed to retract completely when the cat is awake, so dont delay, and take her to your favourite vets today, just to find out what is wrong and help her.

Anything out of the normal like this should immediately alert you to a problem with the cats health.

Take her to the vets. If you dont know one, then look on this site to find one closeby.

Let us know how you get on and good luck.

PS Dont panic, it is probably something simple, but get it checked out for sure.
