Hi, Barb! Did you know that there is a practicing doctor out theere who originally was from around my neck of the woods here in Iowa? He is not a veterinarian but an actual M.D.! You know, the kind that treats us humans? HA1 HA! HA! Cannot off hand remember his name but think his practice is in Wisconsin? Though I could be wrong. Can find out for you as you could contact him to see how he did it. Or just try finding him by Googling blind doctors to see what you come up with. Give me a few days to find out his name. Peg

I would like to help stray cats I would like to teach people how to care for there pets I would like to help and or work with wild cats. Where I used to work people knew that I was up on the latest thing and how to care for pets. So I would get questions quite often.
