You will find something very special about your new pet: NO ONE TOLD HIM HE'S "HANDICAPPED".... therefore he WON'T be. Cats aren't as stupid as people- they JUST ADAPT, better than you will be able to believe. We've had blind cats, diabetic cats, old cats, cats in renal failure, tripods, you name it- they were FINE..... they all did, and most STILL DO, better than we do!! Medications can be adjusted to, other pets can be adjusted to- you'll all undoubtedly do FINE.....

p.s.- I can't understand how you could feel the way you do-- except that's why we have 12 indoor cats and a colony of ferals we feed and just fostered 3 feral kittens........ the others are right- you don't PLAN 12+ cats, 12+ cats is something that happens to you...... and they ARE a blessing.........

A total and complete sucker who wouldn't have it any other way-
