In a TikTok video, an owner shared her cat's funny behaviour. In the clip, we see a tabby cat opening only one eye.
Jokingly, the user wonders if this behaviour might lead to a trip to the vet. She even asks the cat to open its eye.
"Mine does the same thing"
This behaviour sparked lots of discussion among viewers: "*I just spent £160 for this exact reason. My cat has conjunctivitis*". "*Mine does the same thing, what does it mean?*" another user wondered.
It's worth knowing that eye squinting is normal in cats. As Newsweek reports, it can be a reaction to light, dust or another condition like conjunctivitis.
When to seek veterinary advice
If your cat closes one eye without reason, consult your vet. They can diagnose any health issues your pet might have.
