Vinnie Domestic Short Hair Warminster, PA

This handsome devil was found wandering the streets of Philadelphia and got right into someone's car with no problem. He clearly was someone's pet at one point. Cat Tales took him in and took care of him. Vinnie needed entropian surgery (when the eyelids turn in towards the eye and can irritate the eye). He's all fixed up and will never have that issue again. Cats are born with this sometimes with different levels of severity. We did fix his eye lids, but Vinnie is blind and we could not fix that. He was diagnosed with retina atrophy. He can see some light, but IS blind. He does well with this and fooled a lot of people that he could in fact see. Don't let this special need of Vinnie's fool you. He gets around very well and will fool you, too.

Vinnie is a very docile kitty. He is calm and loving. If you place him on your lap he just may sit there forever. He enjoys being pet and also seems to enjoy being combed. Vinnie is on the calm side and hasn't shown us a bunch of spunk but he does enjoy playing. He enjoys looking out the window in his cat tree. Vinnie was in foster care with other cats and pays them no mind. He doesn't seem to have a negative bone in his body; calm, cool and collected. He would make a great companion for someone; loves the lovin' but also can be independent.

Vinnie is considered special needs because he's blind, but he does very well with his blindness once he's familiar with his area. He does still love to sit in the window - we think he feels the warmth coming in from the window.
