Helping Blind Cats "See" a future

"Jordan came to PALS about 4 years ago.  He is such a pretty cat that he would get a lot of attention at the shelter from prospective adopters.  But... everyone who took him home,  whether through adoption or fostering, would soon bring him back and tell us of his odd behavior.  His movements are a bit spastic and we had suspicions  of neurological problems, but none were confirmed.  Last year he was returned to us again.  This time he spent a long time in a cage in our shelter.  When a foster family came along we were happy for him to spend time out of  his cage.  We were not really shocked when six months passed and this foster family wanted to return him.  They claimed their other cats were attacking him.

We were shocked and sickened by his condition when he was returned to us.   He was horribly matted, filthy dirty.  His once beautiful coat was caked with dried cat litter and his tail was no longer able to move. He was petrified of  humans. HIs movements were more spastic.  We took him to an ophthalmologists  who confirmed that Jordan has 15% sight.  His vision loss is progressive and  has  been worsening all these years.  The vet attributed this to poor nutrition  when he was a kitten.
 
We at PALS knew that Jordan could not take the emotional  stress of being adopted and returned again.  Everyone expected Jordan to adapt his behavior to household living... we knew he couldn't do this. He needed a  home that would accept him as he is. 

Then I found The Blind Cat Rescue!!  I knew you were full and was hoping for some advice from you and was so  thrilled when you agreed to take Jordan as a new member of your special family!!

After our little 8 hour journey... Jordan is finally home with you and Steffie!  We are so happy he is with you and certainly can never thank you enough!!"
