It sounds like your cat's watery eyes could be due to a variety of factors, such as environmental irritants like dust or pollen, allergies, or even a mild infection. Since your cat seems otherwise healthy, with no swelling or difficulty keeping their eyes open, it might just be a minor issue.

To help manage this, you can gently wipe away the tears with a soft, damp cloth to keep the area clean. It's important to use a separate cloth for each eye to avoid spreading any potential infection. Keep an eye on your cat for any changes, such as redness, swelling, or if the tearing persists or worsens.

If the watery eyes continue for more than a few days or if you notice additional symptoms like redness or discharge, it would be a good idea to consult your veterinarian to rule out any underlying issues.

Please feel free to reach out if you have any more questions. Thank you!
