Question
Hi,

Is there a product I can use on my cats to remove food and tear stains, especially on kittens? I need a good product for photo sessions.
Also do you recommend any type of eye wash or drops to brighten their eyes for photo session?

Thanks  

Answer
Dear Blaze

If  you are using any product on kittens I would go for something that is safe for human babies.  However there are products formulated for cats.  Unfortunately I am in the UK so am unable to advise on products available in the USA but you could look in the USA for products such as those listed on this UK site http://www.purrsonaltouch.co.uk/prodtype.asp?strParents=&CAT_ID=114&numRecordPos...

I would not recommend using anything in their eyes to brighten them as kittens eyes should be bright enough.  Introducing liquids into the eyes is not very comfortable so should be avoided unless there is a medical reason.
