:confused: My youngest cat has membranes coming up from the inside corner of his eyes to cover most of his eyes. This is happening on both eyes and while it doesn't seem to hurt him it looks wierd and I'm concerned. I rescued this little guy from a person that had over 40 cats and kittens at his home. He's had his shots and is scheduled to be neutered next week. I will be asking the vet about this but wondered if anyone else has run into this problem with their cats?

He also scratches a lot, even though he's had flea baths & Advantage put on him and I comb him with the flea comb most nights and don't get anything. But he scratches so much his back has lots of little scabs. Any hints on what I can do to stop the scratching? He's a sweet and VERY loving little guy and so soft! I just want him to be happy and healthy.

All cats have this third eyelid, but it is not normally visible.
When it does start to show like this I think you should seek medical advice urgently, as it can be a sign of various illnesses.

Please take your cat to a vet immediately - your cat could end up blind!
