FOUND: Grey Cat with gooey eyes

Sam from New Lynn

ARAWA STREET- New Lynn: Does this cat belong to anyone? Anyone know who it belongs to? Seems friendly (except with other cats). It is badly in need of medical attention for its eyes. Been around for a month or so. Has really bad conjunctivitis so I will try to catch him/her this week and take to Carevets-Glen Eden if nothing changes by Friday.
UPDATE: caught this kitty this evening as the eyes are much worse. Keeping the kitty safe, warm and fed. Will contact SPCA in the morning. Will update again once I know what is happening. S/he must belong to someone as s/he is very affectionate. Please message if you know who s/he might belong to.
Update 2 Nov: This young man is now being treated by the vet before being collected by the SPCA.
