Yes its a seperate type though from the human type. Its actually pretty serious. It stays in their system thier whole life, and when they are stressed, it gets reactivated and they have upper respiratory symptoms. Its also very contagious, so my other cat probably has it. It caused my kitten to go blind![]()
Angie ~ how does your blind kitten get around? I ask because our one cat, who I suspect has eyesight issues, tends to get really close to see things. He is able to run around and play so I think he must be farsighted. He is a Ragdoll so given the breeding, I wouldn't be surprised if he has some genetic problems.
He gets around pretty good. He isnt completely blind. He does get really close to things too. He smashes into his food, so it spills out the back of the bowl. He will not jump up or down from anything. He has done things like scale the christmas tree, and he will cry until I help him down.
Other than that he acts normal. He jumps on my other cats back and plays like a normal cat. I dont think cats let disabilities stop them. They are more resilient than people. I do though, think his sense of hearing is heightened. He is petrified of my husband because hes loud.
I always wanted a Ragdollto your kitty.

Chinese woman stuck in blind date's home by sudden Covid lockdown
It?s the stuff that nightmares are made of ? an awkward blind date that simply won?t end.
For one Chinese woman, that became a reality last Friday when she said she had to stay in her date's apartment after authorities imposed a Covid-19 lockdown on that area of the city of Zhengzhou.
Officials were responding to an outbreak of the delta variant in the capital of Henan province where scores of cases were recorded last week.
Three days later, the woman shared videos of her lockdown routine on Weibo, China?s Twitter-like social media platform, and Douyin, which TikTok is known as in the country. Her story quickly went viral.
In one of the videos viewed by NBC News, the woman said she had traveled from the city of Guangzhou to Zhengzhou, where her family had set up a series of blind dates for her.
?I am getting older, my family introduced me to more than 10 blind dates,? she said. Her new lockdown partner was her fifth date in the lineup, she added.
Although she did not reveal her full name, age or the identity of her blind date, she was identified as Wang in subsequent interviews with local media. Her handle on Douyin is "Wang Yi in Guangzhou."
Wang agreed to meet at the blind date?s house Friday so he could "show off his cooking," she told The Paper, a Shanghai-based digital newspaper, on Monday.
While her host had been a gracious one, she said, he barely spoke but "everything else is great." She added that he "cooks, cleans up, works."
While she was grateful to "everyone for your concern, I will hang in there,? she said. "I hope the pandemic will soon be over, and all my single sisters will no longer be alone."

Federal website for free COVID tests launches a day early
https://www.covidtests.gov/The federal website where Americans can order free COVID-19 at-home tests has launched — and a day early.
Though originally slated to start taking orders Wednesday, covidtests.gov had a surprise launch Tuesday. It directs visitors to special.usps.com/testkits, where U.S. residents can fill out a short form to get their tests.
The White House had announced the site Friday.
Orders include one set of four free at-home tests from USPS.com that ship, for free, to residential addresses, starting in late January. Orders are limited to one per household.
I can safely say this may be the only time I wish I were a US residentFree tests for everyone!
I'm honestly surprised that we've escaped it. At least two of our clients has it ripping through their houses right now (not doing walks from them until clear) and LA has about 30K per day for the last week recorded as positive. And that's only the people that tested or could get tested.
On my cell.
