that you repost this email with the words feline glaucoma in the

Hi Jenna,
I have a cat who is at risk for glaucoma, but doesn't have it at this time.
The kind of risk you would be taking would be a lot different than
with an FELV+ cat. Even if she loses the other eye, she should get
around just fine as a blind cat.
I don't see any reason to avoid adopting

There is a pet hobbyist site that deals with blind cats and I am sure you can

Hi again Jenna. I should mention that I'm hoping to adopt a litle blind kitten

Most vets do it this way. I just think it's too much at once to vaccinate and
spay all at once. Too taxing on the system. I've lost fosters that way.
But a vet should never spay of vaccinate if a cat is sniffling or has a temp.
