Hi Jenna. I don't really know anything about this disease, but I would suggest that you repost this email with the words "feline glaucoma" in the subject...that way people who have some knowledge or experience will be more likely to read it and respond. Also, what I do know, is that when a cat steals your heart, there's almost nothing you can do to stop it! :) And I'm sure Satine has picked out a new kitty she wants you to have. If this is the kitty, your heart will know and everything will work out. I know all about that heart ache...I just lost my Slinky a little over a week ago. It's harder than I ever imagined it could be and I know I couldn't go through it again right now. But I know that giving my love to another kitty is the best way to honor Slinky's life. I'm so glad you're considering this baby and opening your heart to new furkids who need a home! You're right...this is one of the kindest, most compassionate, and most knowledgeable groups of people on the web! I'm sure someone will be able to help answer your question. Just respost it with feline glaucoma in the subject line and I'm sure you'll get some info. Good luck figuring out what to do and keep us updated!! Hang in there! *hugs* MJ and Angel Slinky =^..^=

She is very sweet, but I am terrified that some people have told me not to get a cat with this type of problem, that it could effect the other eye and she could go blind, or have other medical problems. I am afraid to take this kind of risk because I just lost my baby Satine, and the heart ache hurts soo much. Does anyone out there know anything about this illness? You all are some of the nicest people on the web, and the most educated about cat biology- so I really need some imput. I can't stop thinking about this kitty.
