Hi Missy
Cats can inflict some pretty nasty scratches, even on skin!

If your pup's eye is watering and she's squinting and crying, chances are the eyeball itself has been scratched. It's possible she's damaged the cornea.

If this happens it can lead to serious problems, so I would recommend that you take your pup to see your veterinarian as soon as possible. That way he can take a look and prescribe anti-biotic ointment, or whatever he feels necessary.

Best of luck! Hopefully she will leave the cat alone next time :o)
