I'm glad to see that someone is taking this
kitten. I have a blind kitten (now 6 months old) that I took in to foster
and she is wonderful, fostering is over, we would never give her up. She
and her sister (not blind) chase each other around the whole house and she plays
with toys just like any other cat and knows where the litter boxes anand where
the food is. She jumps up on the furniture and the bed and jumps down with
no problem, the jumping down took a while to learn. I recently took in 2
feral kittens to socialize and they are in a large crate that sits on a card
table in my living room. Grace, the blind kitty, wants to play with them
and the crate is close enough to the couch so she can get up to the crate.
Lately she has taken to climbing up on top of the crate and laying there and she
jumps down to the rug with no problem, the top of the crate is 5 feet off the
floor. I'd say there isn't much see can't do except see.

I called the shelter today and spoke with
both the animal control
sargent, and the humane society representative.
The kitten is being
quarrantined per regulation because she bit someone.
It's ridiculous,
yes we, and they, know that. But that's the rule. They
will keep her
in isolation for 10 days to make sure she doesn't have
rabies.
Whenever an animal is turned in for biting (and no rabies tag),
that's
what happens.
I told them I would come and get her on the
day she is released.
That's this coming Thursday, Dec. 15. If anyone
else was thinking of
taking her, please let me know because on the one
hand, I have many,
many animals, and it is always better (especially for
a special needs
animal) to have fewer in the household. But on the
other hand, I have
had a blind cat, so I know how to care for
her.
I thought I would post this to see if anyone had an intention of
trying to adopt this kitten, and also to let you know that she WILL
have a home come Thursday--one way or the other.
When
it comes to saving the life of an animal, trust no one other than
yourself!! DO NOT THINK SOMEONE ELSE WILL DO IT!!!
