Introducing my boy Simon (3 pics)

What an amazing animal. Thank you so much for sharing his story -- it's certainly a welcome, positive one! And I agree with Tambrey, he's not ugly at all. He's a beautiful, sweet cat.

JD, I have a blind dog...but it is from cataracts. Animals are so adaptable in that sight is really not as important as we might think. It's more of a smell thing with them. Java gets around fine...just don't move furniture...lol. She is a dainty little girl, and walks around till her nose hits something and she walks around it. It's kind of funny to watch.

I know you can scent things such as steps, corners etc with different scents, and I tried it for a while, but she seems to do OK with familiar territory. Thanks for being so wonderful to Simon!

Well, its nice to meet and re-meet people here. Believe me, I read and reread a lot of info provided here before I decided to join. Quite honestly, I'm cat-people shy from way back when.

I've had a couple of blind dogs, myself but this is my first blind cat.I always have an array of animals with "problems".

I have a three legged turtle, a deaf dog and a half grown pup I took in when he was 8 days old.

In all, I have 4 dogs and two cats, plus a turtle and a pleco fish.

Only blind people would say he's ugly. He's so beautiful! I love his coloring.
