Problems opening eyes

[MissDolittle]

One of the 4 girls, a calico, is having problems opening her eyes completely. They are open for days now, but it seems like they should be much bigger. Her sisters look great and normal, eyes wide open, but hers just seem to want to open half way and that's it.

I wonder if there's anything one can do.

This is her:

This is her sister to compare:

Any idea? I will email these pics to my vet and see what she says too. I couldn't find anything on the web about it....probably didn't use the right keywords..but for what are gonna search?

My dogs love to help with the kittens hehe. They like our adult cats too, but once a stray cat comes near our property...OH OH!

I wish my kittens are healthy like yours. They're one mth plus old but one of them is very active & naughty. Lets hope that one will stay healthy & live longer. Last mth we bought a 2-mth old kitten. He's in good health. I'll show you guys the pics of my kittens & cats. I haven't uploaded the pics yet.

The one who had problems opening her eyes looks really pudgy, hehehe. It's so adorable!

one of my kitties kind of had the same problem, only that now one eye has open completely and the other is like 3/4 of the way opened, but making progress. He looks so cute, he had a hard time adjusting to the light since he's white.
