Re: The Cats "whiskers"


I agree 100% Dawn; Misty went blind but was able to navigate thru the house as if she weren't; took me quite a while to realize it; also I think they have excellent spatial sense and memory to aid them as well, plus a great sense of smell. Fortunately I am not a furniture re-arranger!

Re: The Cats "whiskers"


My little blind boy Mutley only ever had one accident and that one down to a friend of mine frightening him by picking him up too quickly. He lept from her arms and bumped his head, had to rush him to the vets where he had an injection to take the swelling down. He very quickly recovered and was a very adventurous little blind kitty. I used to play hide and seek with him He always found me

They certainly do. The blind Siamese that Moli has in atm has been blind for around two years its thought, he too does incredibly well.
