I guess you could say he was pretty much born that way. My husband rescued him Sept. of 2006 at his job, he was running along the chainlink fence trying to get away. luckily he caught him. His brother was not so lucky, he was also blind , got hit by a car . We took him( Tiger) to the vet, he at that time had both eyes, but they were in very bad shape. We started daily eye care for him, his health inproved , but his little eyes did not. We had to have the riight eye removed. He does have a left eye , but it isn't the size of a normal eye. it is very small - He is blind in it also. But his blindness hasn't hindered him one bit. He goes all over the house , gets on our center island - where the sink is, he loves laying in there.
He will get on the table , but has the best manners, He loves fruit, and fresh deer meat. He is quite spoiled. He is 1 of our 30 babies. we dearly love each & everyone. Over half my husband has saved. We live way out in the country, have them spayed or neutered and they become part of our family till they pass on.
Another one of our TCS members has a kitty with bad vision and congenitally small eyes -- sarahp and her cat Smudge. Not sure if she is completely blind - don't think so. I
