welcome Tiresias, our little blind foster

Blind and deaf pets can live happy, healthy, quality lives. In fact, sometimes it's hard to tell them from sighted pets. They do, though, have their own special needs.

He is continuing to improve and is quite a mama's boy.

he has hit on teh magik ways to mom's heart

be completely floppy and posable in her lap..er or wherever you are hanging out on her

and nurse on her fingers. i myowncute self never finger nursed i CHOMPED even as a tiny kitten, but since I"m intriniscally cute I didn't need such antics to win her over.

His eye continues to improve, as does his vision. he now pounces with some accuracy and mom saw him playing with a piece of paper towel on the kitchen floor - no noise and not much contrast there but he was swattin at it and having a big time!

here are some picts of the lil guy

hope his poor eye heals soon, it looks painful but he is a happyhappy little guy. he plays and plays and plays and plays. he gets along with all the other cats and the dog. he loves to play with toes. He likes to get in empty food dishes and hunker down and pounce from there. He acts like a normal silly kitten.

Tierseas did finally have to have the eye removed, he has healed up well and hardly notices. we aren't sure how he can see out of his other eye, it is very VERY scarred, but somehow he does and he zooms and pounces and plays. he doesn't climb much. thanks for thinking of him :)
