Paris: Always in my ♥ Donating YT Member | Funky eye smell Paris seems to have a funky smell around his eyes. I thought it was bad breath but it seems to come from the eye area. |

| I suggest you make an appointment with your vet ASAP. Let us know what you find out. I hope it is nothing serious. |

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | She's not teething, is she? Sometimes, the funky smell can be from wetness just hangin' out there...other times, it can be conjunctivitis...so you may want to head to the vet. Marcel gets an eye infection each big pollen season.

| My Romeo gets a smell around his eyes also. It is a yeasty smell. He has allergies. I took him to the vet for it. I have to keep them wiped with something mild like baby shampoo and warm water on a wash cloth. Rinse it real good. Or just warm water but dry it real good. His eyes get to itch him, That is when I notice it. I would ask his vet. Good luck

Paris: Always in my ♥ Donating YT Member | Ok called the vet and he said to wash his eyes with warm clear water, using a separate towel for each eye. The apply ointment I have for a few days. He said regular cleaning around the eyes should help with the stale smell. The ointment is one he prescribed for allergies. |
