Boots’ condition is known as Uveitis.  Here is a bit of info on Uveitis.

😿 What Is Uveitis in Cats? Uveitis is a painful inflammation inside the eye that can cause redness, cloudiness, and even blindness if left untreated. It’s more than just an eye issue—it’s often a sign of something more serious. ⸻

👁️ Common Causes: • FIV, FeLV, or FIP • Toxoplasmosis • Trauma or injury • Immune system issues • Cancers or other infections ⸻

🐾 Signs to Watch For: • Squinting or blinking a lot • Cloudy or red eye • Visible third eyelid • Eye discharge • Change in pupil size • Sensitivity to light ⸻

💊 How It’s Treated: Treatment depends on the cause—but typically includes: • Anti-inflammatory eye drops • Antibiotics or antiviral meds • Pain relief • Treating the underlying condition Early treatment = better outcomes! ⸻
💬 If your cat’s eyes don’t look right, don’t wait—get it checked. Uveitis can be serious, but with quick care, your cat can stay comfortable and keep their sight.

This sweet boy’s journey began in April 2022 when he was left behind at our vet’s office. His owner never returned, so in May, we welcomed him and his housemate Ninja into our care.

He’s incredibly affectionate—if you sit down, he’ll curl up on you and stay there for hours. He’s a total purr machine who lives for love and snuggles.

Last year, he had a vestibular episode that left him with a charming head tilt and a unique “floating lens” in his right eye. But don’t let that fool you—he’s as loving and resilient as ever.
