Eva kitten went to the vet the other day to get examined for her clumsiness.  FIP and toxoplasmosis were ruled out, and that left severe nearsightedness, and poor pupil reaction time, indicating a fair level of functional blindness and possible metal retardation. 

Well, at least she's not SICK.   

So we will be permanently closing the cat door by buying a new back door, and we will return to buying cat litter in bulk at Costco.  We are sad at this turn of events, but at least it is not a fatal disease or anything.  If her behavior worsens, we are to take her to the kitty opthamologist to check for cataracts or other "fixable" problems.  We are not the type of people to spend thousands of dollars on blind cats, so it is unlikely we'll go that route.  I've lived with blind animals before, it is mostly hilarious/sad to watch them constantly crash into shit.  Twice at Dr Jack's office, Eva jumped off the exam table and SMACk into the wall.  Oh, boobookitty!    Oh well, at least she showed off her exxxxtreme clumsiness!

So we went from one special-needs cat (Chet, the PissMaster 8000) to another.  Eva-Full-of-Grace, we love you, babykitten.  Even if you are ornery as hell.  I'd be ornery as hell if I kept crashing into everything all the time, too.  xoxoxo.
