Cats can develop eye infections similar to a stye in humans, known as conjunctivitis or "pink eye." This condition can cause redness, swelling, and discharge around the eye. If you suspect your cat has a stye or eye infection, it's important to take them to a veterinarian for proper diagnosis and treatment.
