Manxi

Manxi was dumped at Animal control in Dallas.  (a very high kill shelter)

She is lucky that the volunteers and employees really liked her and worked hard to raise the money to fly her to us.

As soon as she arrived I knew I was looking at a hypertension cat 

which was confirmed the next day by the vet.  We immediately 

started her on medication.   The sad thing is we suspect that

she was dumped at the pound because she became blind.  Had her

owners immediately taken her to the vet and they high blood

pressure treated,  she may have regained her sight.

If your cat suddenly goes blind  RUSH your cat to the vet

and insist they check the cats blood pressure also.  Humans

get their blood pressure at the vets all the time,  animals rarely get

it done,  you have to advocate for your animal  :)

She likes humans,  not overly fond of other cats although 

as she has adjusted to her blindness she has gotten better.
