Kato is the love of my life. I rescued him when he was 4 months old, at 8 months he unexpectedly went blind from juvenile cataracts. While that was heart wrenching i thought that would be the end of it, Now 4 years later he will require a second surgery on his left eye. We are unsure exactly what happened- we do know he had a detached retina but the current thought is that the prosthetic lens from his cataract surgery slipped out of place slicing his retina.
This took place yesterday (4/25) when I noticed the eye becoming yellow/ pinkish and within a matter of 2-3 minutes it was completely filled with blood.
The eye is now at risk of rupturing and we are headed to see a specialist today (4/26) to see what our options are and if the eye is worth saving.
Most likely the next step will be the remove the eye.
I will keep posting updates from here but he will be going in for another surgery for either repair or removal and sadly I’m currently in a place that I need to ask for help.
I can’t thank you enough for even taking the time to read this, my heart aches right now, all I can say is how he doesn’t deserve any of this.
