Update on blind kitty (Ocular)

You are a very special person , who deserve a special cat like Ocular (new name pending).

I can't wait to see his beautiful face again, in his furever home :D

this is such a touching story.

Another thing to remember, kitties identify each other by scent, not by appearance, so I'm sure that in no time Ocular will know the scent of which kitties to avoid.:)

He's so lucky to have you.

I think you should call him Bright Eyes because he can see what a wonderful purrrson you are. Bless you for taking in such a sweet little thing and I'm praying that things work out. I cried when I read your story about the kisses.....

Ocular is so fortunate to have found you (and vice-versa). If you settle him in to his new surroundings slowly maybe your cats will adjust to him ok? CARES website has this link http://members.shaw.ca/robandlauralee/cat_care1.html about introducing a new pet that was helpful for us.

Let us know what you decide to name him!

What a beautiful, heart warming story!

Regarding a new name; what about something about seeing from the inside, like Starshine or Glow or Shining Star? (for some reason this little church ditty comes to mind "This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it shine")

I am so touched by your story about Ocular. What a sweet boy, just looking for the right person to love and be loved by. I hope everything goes well and that your brood learns to accept and befriend him.

Welcome to your forever home, Ocular.

CCL, I'm so happy to hear that you'll be taking Ocular home with you. I also believe that it was meant to be.:) I'm sure that it will take some time but you're other cats will learn to adjust and accept him. Please keep us updated. Welcome home Ocular.

Oh he sounds so sweet!!! I really pray that it will work out.

You've got my total support for what it's worth. I may not be able to help in person but I can be really good cheerleader!!

Lisa..... I am sooooo thrilled that you have decided to take Ocular into your home ..... what a remarkable decision! The way you described his sniffing you and kissing your face, just really touched my heart, and made me wish I could be in your place to give that sweety some smooches too! Please do keep us updated and pictures would be nice too! ;)

Thank you for the update! He sounds like a wonderful cat - he certainly is very handsome! I am in love with him too. :)

Ocular is a very fortunate kitty to have found someone like you to bond with. Wishing you much happiness.

I really don't know if you all could be any more wonderful than you are!! Thank you all so much and I am sure I'm going to need all the support I can get when I bring him home.
It's amazing how well they do under such stressful shelter conditions and I figure I will be the one to stress when I bring him home! He will probably be just fine and I will be the one totally freaked out at the first sign of something wrong!! That's when you guys will have to kick in and tell me to chill out!
Thanks so much to all of you!! It means more than I can say.http://petoftheday.com/talk/images/o...es/biggrin.gif


God Bless you all!!

I too am thrilled that Ocular is going home with you, indeed there will be some adjustments to be made, but I am sure it will be just fine, unfortunately there are many people like Butthead, who would share his opinions,even some people feel this way about humans who are born abnormal, its a sad fact of life, but its great that there are those around like you with a GREAT BIG HEART, and common sense who can offer this sweet kitty a wonderful life .

Yay, another fluffy! :D

I'm so excited that you're bringing Ockey home with you. After the incident with the kisses, I'm sure that you couldn't refuse him if you wanted to. yuhhhhhjjjj (that's what Rizzo has to say on the subject. I think it means "Good for you!" :rolleyes: ) I'm sure he'll do wonderfully at your house. Some of the others will probably take him right in, and the ones that don't....well, like catland said, he'll learn to sniff out the snooty ones. In any case, he'll be soooo happy to be in a real home, where he's loved and cherished. I can't wait to hear about his homecoming!

"Ocular" might be kind of an ugly name, but I think "Ockey" is cute. :) I'm sure you'll think of something better, though. I'd probably call him "Honeydew," to continue my Muppet theme. :D

I saw a one eyed cat in the paper recently up for adoption , they had called him Popeye, i thought that was kinda cute, maybe you could re-name after some famous blind person.:)
