There is no difference between communism and socialism, except in the means of achieving the same ultimate end: communism proposes to enslave men by force, socialism—by vote. It is merely the difference between murder and suicide. Ayn Rand
Friend has a blind kitty. Most gentle and loving cat I have ever met. Indoor only, has no problems navigating his house, runs to meet me when I come over because he knows I will pick him up for a cuddle session. He has a good life, the other cats look out for him and help him find stuff like toys. He is happy and has a good life.
I agree, good comment. You never know, perhaps you found a gift that you didn't know you needed.Originally Posted by NSB

Most recently we adopted a Full Grown rescue after her Dad (owner) passed away with no family members. She is a Black and white Kitty who is now dedicated to me. 3 Rescue cats and on Rescue dog. A big happy family
A former student of mine I keep in touch with still told me pretty much the same thing, she adopted a blind cat and he is now grown and is big baby that has no problem making his way around the house. I do think this little one can still see at least a little and hopefully she got to the vet in time enough to save the sight in the left eye.
Maybe the Good Lord sent this almost blind kitty your way for a reason ... Maybe He knows you will take care of her and love her . I also feel you and the kitty are going to do just fine together ... Love and caring can heal a lot of wounds .
This world needs more Love .

Hopefully the little kitty will have improved since you have seen her last.
All... There is a reason for ignore on forums.
Our little Mittens, beast that she has become, got into a fight with a stray last night. through a glass window. I came down at the noise past midnight watching her beat the window like a punching bag. Even having been awoken past midnight it was hilarious.
In the morning, I got up to go to the bathroom and my wife did too. I went back to bed and Mittens hopped right in and peed on the bed. What the heck!
The life of taking in something in need of loving.
Again to the OP... Medical bills? M me and I'll pass on the karma of when I needed some help with Mittens.
“Coincidence is God’s way of remaining anonymous.”
bakerjw, there's a term for cats peeing to establish their property rights, I just can't remember it. Basically Mittens is feeling threatened and wants to establish "I live here!" but the outside cat is threatening her space. You could put some kind of proximity sensor thing outside that window that turns on a sprinkler, they make things for this purpose. http://www.vetstreet.com/our-pet-exp...an-outdoor-cat talks about this.
And yes, I know, very annoying to get a peed on bed!
My two critters sometimes have sibling issues and stand off 3 feet from each other, swiping at each other stylistically, that is always funny to see, for us humans.
My vet calls it P- mail!
Went to visit the little one this morning on my break. She's making good progress. Awful as her eyes look, they are about 1000% better than Friday and no doubt she can see, just no telling how well or for how long, but the eyes are getting better so can't see it getting worse. Very sweet little cat, sat on my lap about 20 minutes and enjoyed being petted. I still haven't gotten a purr out of her, but some cats purr more than others, maybe just not her thing. We figure she's six or seven weeks old.

Looks like she's gonna make a beautiful little companion.
Being human is not for sissies.
Of all the cats we've had over the years, most came from decent surroundings, only one other one came from a really bad situation like this one, about 14 years ago, actually only a couple of hundred yards or so from where this one was, maintenance guy brought him inside to my wife's office. His eyes weren't this bad, but most other things were worse, starved, terrible fleas and ear mites, etc. A few hours at the vet and he has been the sweetest and most loving cat I've ever known. Our other two are nice, mostly just goofy and entertaining, but not lovey-dovey and devoted like the old one. I can't help but think that as young and as long ago as that was, he remembers and is greatful for being saved, maybe this little girl will be the same.
Pssst, pssst that's going to be a huge puddy tat!Went to visit the little one this morning on my break. She's making good progress.

She looks bigger in the pictures than she really is because I held the phone so close. She's about average for a 6-7 week old. She wasn't starving though, looks like she was getting enough to eat, her eyes were the real problem, infection had perforated both her corneas and both were just oozing messes, almost looked like they had been gouged out. Strangely, her right eye was the worst Friday, now it looks better than the right, but both are much better than they were, whatever drops they're using are working well.
If the she acts now, content and calm and OK with being held by anybody, is her real personality, she is going to be a very good cat.
I'm actually bouncing with joy!
I was kinda afraid of seeing bad news,, but I held onto the hope you sparked with your report from Saturday. Seeing the pics has made me tearfully happy!
A sweet looking lovable kitten, that I'm sure will become a cherished member of the family,, even if you can't make her your's. But I think that's where it belongs!
GOD BLESS YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Its amazing how quickly cats respond to bit of medical treatment......they may be soft and fluffy,but they are some of the toughest critters put on this earth.
richhodg66, great progress! Glad she is doing well. Hoping she heals even better
Rescues are the best, they remember you saved them forever, and worship that wonderful human who saved them, for life.
I detest that they had to go through trauma to be rescued, though. At least they are safe now though.
AWESOME X 10
The last 8 kitties we have owned ( owned us ?) have all been strays that turned up hungry looking for a meal or sick or injured and they never left . We only have one rule ... you live here with us ... you get "fixed" and it's nice if you would catch mice ...but not mandatory !
