Information  My cat has gone blind  by Lucy Barraud
(Lincolnshire, UK)  A few weeks ago, I noticed that my cat's
pupils had become very big and on closer examination, discovered
that she couldn't see.  I took her to the vet who thought she
had had a mini stroke and didn't think much could be done about
it.  Over the last few weeks, she seems to have been quite happy
and is learning to negotiate the house with her whiskers as
guides. She is eating well and drinking quite a lot.  I have
noticed that she has quite a fast heart rate (which I mentioned
to the vet, but he dismissed).  Today, I noticed my cat was
slightly disturbed. After eating, she wandered around the house
unsettled, meowing. I couldn't understand what she wanted, or if
she was in pain.  I did notice that one of her eyes seems to
have "blown" and I cannot see any green around the edges any
more, it is just black.  I cannot get her to the vet until
tonight, as I have to work. Do you ha
