Hello, This my first post. My cat just recently went blind. I don't know what to do. He will be 15 years old in Feb '07. Watching him run into things is sad. I believe that spirit can help more than doctors. Maybe someone could tell what to do.

Hi ,

Can you tell us some more? What is the cause he went blind? Did this come sudden? What did the vet say? Are there any other problems with him. Is he totaly blind? etc.

Although it seemed like a sudden blindness, there were other signposts in the past couple of years. I haven't taken him to a vet in years, but his health seems okay. I don't have a lot of confidence in vets' nor do I like to pay for a guess. Maybe I should take him to a vet optomitrist? I think he can see light and dark, when in direct light his eyes will dialate. What do you think?

I think you have to find a vet you can trust! There could be serious reasons why your cat is getting blind. If you have a diagnoses than there is a bigger chance we can try to help you with some alternative remedies.
