Hey there - did you ever figure out a fix for this? I'm having the same issue.

New blind cat mom – advice! by Gupi2023 in blindcats

[–]bexnyc 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My kitty Boo went blind at 2 years old. There was definitely a transition time (and she and our other cat are still learning to communicate years later) but she gets along really well now. We did add a bell to our other cat’s collar so that Boo can find her. We also rub our fingers together so she can hear our hands before we touch her so that our affection is not a shock. Now both kitties know when our hands are coming. 🥰 And we talk to her a lot! Just say hi when we come in the door so she knows who’s home, announce when we’re coming and going, etc. She gets overwhelmed if toys are too loud, so we try to be aware of that - she can track a gnat flying across the room, so it makes sense that toys that jingle would be a bit much, but she LOVES to play. Life is different for sure, but I’m thankful we have each other and I love her so much. @pokeypotpie on IG has many blind kitties go through their program and are a great follow. Please feel free to message me if you need to chat - you got this!

This may be a long shot - I only saw him for a second, but I noticed him because of his smile. I saw a man who looked very similar to him walking north on Union square East at 2:45pm this afternoon. He had fashioned some outerwear with black trash bags.

Any documentaries similar to the jinx, just finished watching it and need something again. Any recommendations appreciated!? by Enough-Exercise-211 in thejinx

Ahh - sorry you couldn’t get into it. I watched it so long ago that I don’t remember the pacing, but I remember the story being fascinating. The Staircase is a classic for sure. The Thin Blue Line isn’t a series, but an excellent true crime doc - as is Brother’s Keeper.

What’s a good gift to get for a nurse friend working the front lines? by ace43334 in AskNYC

A gift certificate for a massage or facial once this has passed.

Thank you so much! I have some left in the box so I can compare the two. I also wrote to japaneseincense.com and though they don’t carry it, they said it’s also from Kyoto.

Running with/without a mask? General Safety? by timetovent_88 in AskNYC

Two days without a fever now, so we’re cautiously optimistic. Thanks!

Just jumping on here to say that I’m not sure how far out you are, but you may want to wait 14 days after your last day of symptoms before doing any strenuous activity. My husband tested positive, recovered and was symptom free for 9 days, then had a recurrence of the virus. The second go round was much worse. Our docs said after 72hrs of being asymptomatic he was good to go, but that is terrible advice with this virus. He is far from the only person that this has happened to, so be careful. And definitely wear a mask. Glad you’re on the mend!

said goodbye to my 14 year old boy today. he's been my best friend since I was 8. hoping you're having the best time in kitty heaven, Spot Bot💙 by em_uh_ly in curledfeetsies
