Hi Kerry,
That Bandy is really something! What a cat! I'm so pleased he's
regained some of his vision. Thank you for posting about his latest
vet visit. As always you, Bandy and the rest of your babies are in my
prayers,
Nina

Hi everyone,
Just wanted to update you all on Bandy's eye appointment last
Thursday..We finally have some good news..and the doctor was even
shocked...His eyes have improved..So for the moment, he can see
some..He isn't running into things or being as cautious as he was 2 wks
ago...His eyes aren't cloudy right now either...So we are on a
maintenance dose of the prednisolone acetate and atropine...He gets the
pred drops twice daily and atropine once daily now...we do a re-check
if all is well in July otherwise I am to call if there is any change
between now and then...He will have to remain on the drops the rest of
his life though and the dosage adjusted according to how he
responds...He said the fibrin clots were gone, but he has some scarring
on the retina due to all of this...It is just part of his disease or I
guess that is the cause of it..They did a toxo test, but it was
negative..I think he was checked for this last August, too. Anyway, I
am happy that he can see some...He is now climbing on things again..but
he can't judge distance too well...I watched him yesterday, and he was
very cautious about getting down...I guess he will learn how to deal
with all of this...I am thinking about getting some pads to put on the
floor near where he climbs so he won't hurt himself again...He likes to
climb so I don't want to take that away from him...
Anyway, head butts to all and hope your kitties are doing good
today..
