Okay, tldr: would a second sighted cat help ease the tension between my lonely sighted cat and our loner blind cat? How would we go about that? Now the full story: A couple years ago I was living with a roommate and we had three cats between us. Two males belonged to her, and one female was...

Poppy is 5. We moved 8 months ago to a new build, no other cat smells. Fast forward 3 months, she started weeing on the carpets and the occasional poo. I've cleaned up ok every time and she is now restricted to the lounge/kitchen, and at night time she is allowed in my bedroom (she has wet my...

Hi Please believe that I have searched threads but I have particular issues here. Poppy is blind, 5 years old. She's adorable. We moved 5 months ago to a newbuild, I expected a couple of issues and got a few wet carpets. Easily treatable but annoying. She kept doing it so I took her to the...

Which cat is more difficult to care for: 1) a cat that is blind or 2) a cat that is deaf I'm considering adopting a new cat, and the shelter has one of each (1 blind, 1 deaf). I can't adopt both. I currently have 2 normal cats, if that makes a difference. Also, I have around 30+ years of...

First time posting but I’m not sure what to do. I found a blind cat on the street 4 months ago and adopted her since she was very friendly. But! She is very aggressive toward my other cats. For awhile they could escape her on high surfaces but she is very smart and gets around well despite her...

Hi all We have two cats - one is a blind 7-year-old who is somewhat nervous, and a playful two-year-old (who dominates the blind one a bit). The younger cat has started using the cat flap, after a bit of coaxing. But the blind one (who probably doesn't like the scent of her annoying feline...

Our blind cat was fine this morning, but then when went to walk to her food bowl for breakfast I noticed that she was unsteady on her feet and falling over a bit. No other sign of illness or pain. I scooped her right up and took her to our vet. She was perky in the car and seems fine other than...

Hello! I have a beautiful, wonderful, perfect cat, Muzak. He will be 22 in January, and has recently gone almost completely blind; I think he can see a little light/dark. He hasn't played or run around in a year; he has mild arthritis but the vet says he's not in pain, just aches. He has a...

Sugar is about 17, and four years ago she developed a cancerous tumor on her throat and when the vet had her under to remove it and do some dental work she had a HORRIBLE reaction to the anesthesia, they couldn't control it and had to take her 1 hour away to a vet hospital and a week and...

...as you can imagine, for many reasons, and I have been searching high and low for things to do to help my cat adjust to her new life as a blind cat and not finding much beyond keep her in a small space at first and don't change things in the home. Most of the advice is for cats who gradually...

The last time I drove this long with my cat, he was only ten. Now he's 22 and, although otherwise very healthy, he is mostly blind. We'll be driving for four hours to our new place. He'll be in a carrier (which is already his much-loved sleeping spot). I want to know what time to stop feeding...

Hi, I have a two year old cat who has been blind since he was young (from untreated eye infections). He is incredibly sweet and loves to play and chase balls. In the past few weeks, he has occasionally acted really strangely. All of a sudden, he will start coughing like he's choking, and he...

Greetings! This community helped me once and soothed my pain, that's why I'm coming again for help. As you could understand, I had a new member in my cat family. All her life Sonya has been a domestic cat. At her 1 year and help she got panleukopenia and, as a result, she became blind. She...

I have a beautiful, wonderful, amazing, adorable 22-yr-old cat who went blind in the last few months (vet says he can see a little light and dark). I am moving to a new home, 1500 sq ft, in the spring. I am home most of the time. How can I go about helping him adjust? Also, should I restrict him...

Hello, I'm on week 5 of caring for a feral cat that went blind from an illness that we still don't know. I'm posting in this thread to see if you may know what's happening so I can maybe get him the help he needs. I would love more than anything for him to survive this. I took him to the vet a...

...has just gone blind. My vet says come in tomorrow for an exam, but that it's very common at his age. I've read about how to care for a blind cat, and how he will compensate by using his hearing and smell. However Muzak has not been able to smell anything for a year. His hearing seems just...

I have had my cat Luna (who is blind) for two years now and she has always been around my other cat Toulouse (male fixed, 11 years). When she was a baby they were great friends and up till just recently they got along wonderfully and cuddled and groomed each other constantly. They would even...

...had to leave 2 days ago and was looking for someone to adopt Maya or she would have to go back to living in a guesthouse and was the only blind cat with caretakers that didn't have a lot of time for her. So I welcomed little Maya into our home. She is a wonderful cat, loves cuddles, and is...
