Owners should note that if a cat's tear stains are not severe, they can mix equal parts starch and boric acid powder and apply it to the tear stain area. Wait for the powder to be fully absorbed by the tear stains before wiping it off. However, owners still need to find and treat the root cause of the tear stains.



Tear stains in cats are often caused by improper diet. Some owners don't pay attention to the food they feed their cats, and many foods contain too much salt. Cats that eat high-salt food for a long time will develop tear stains. Owners need to adjust their cat's diet, switch to low-salt cat food, and use less or no salt when cooking food for their cats to ensure a bland diet.

Tear stains in cats are caused by an unsanitary environment. If a cat lives in an unsanitary environment, many bacteria will grow, which will irritate the eyes and cause them to secrete tears. Over time, tear stains will appear, making the cat look unhealthy. It is recommended that owners clean the environment regularly and use disinfectant to clean the environment and personal items. For the area around the eyes, you can apply a suitable amount of Taiqu cat eye drops, which will gradually help it recover.

Tear stains in cats are caused by blocked tear ducts. Problems with the tear ducts, such as inflammation of the nasolacrimal duct, can cause narrowing of the nasolacrimal duct, preventing tears from draining through the duct and forcing them to drain from the corner of the eye, resulting in tear stains. Owners need to take their cats to the vet for treatment as soon as possible.
