    My Vet emailed and confirmed that Scrappy Two has lost a lot of her vision, but is not totally blind.
    She has a dental cleaning , and a vitamin supplement in her food so she will be better.
    Our Cats do not see as much as they smell , and she does have Panther and Miquelito and Mickey Fluffy Tail to help her.
    WE thank you so much for all the prayers and good wishes.

    Oh, Gary, I'm so glad this is not quite as serious as had been feared! Now that you know what's going on, you all will adapt in whatever ways will work best for her.

    God bless! More prayers and warm energies and love are being sent.

    I'm curious if the vet has any idea what caused the vision loss.

    Having a vision impaired kitty in the house will be new for you, Gary. At least, I think so; can't recall you ever writing about having one. I know for dogs, they learn their way starting from the water bowl. That is their reference point. So guardians of vision impaired dogs are advised not to relocate the water bowl. Should the dog ever get 'turned around,' it just makes its way to the water bowl, and starts off again. I'm not familiar with how this works for a cat. Perhaps you will want to search online.

    The more obvious thing is not to move furniture. As she adapts, she will be back to jumping up on chairs and such. For some people, decorating for Christmas involves moving furniture. (Making room for a tree). Anyway, redecorating, relocating furniture, should be kept to a minimum.

    Also keep the litter boxes where they have always been.

    It's nice that she has lived with you when she could see well. This means she is already familiar with everything.
