    You may also find that Nikki's sister will be around her more. I have a pair of brothers (one sighted and one not). When they first came to my place, the sighted one seemed to act like a "seeing eye" cat. They have some kind of communication that helps out the blind one.

    I agree with everyone else - don't rearrange the house and put collars with a bell on any other animals that may "attack your kitty" to warn them. Cat's are extremely adaptable and she will in time figure her environemnt out. If there is any furniture that she may bump into, you may initially want to put a pillow or pad there, just till she has her routine down. I know cueing certain places with sounds is useful - for instance, your cat knows the sound of a food bad opening one mile away! Good luck!
