Years back a co-worker adopted a cat, it bite her, she ended up nearly losing her arm from the infection of that bite, so I know what cat scratches and bites can do. Thankfully this kitten missed his eye by a millimeter, bottom eye lid in the corner of the lid. Infection exploded in my mind, it couldn't have been a deep puncture because he didn't bleed a lot. I am still watching that eye and he is still watching for that kitten. Thanks for the well wishes.
