My wife and I had a cat named Bo in the late 90's that went blind at around 10 years old (never did know why). He was born in the house so he knew the lay-out quite well. But it was amazing to watch him move about. He knew exactly where he was all the time, and he never bumped into anything. At the time we had a smallish fenced in back yard and a cat door that Bo & his brother Mikey used to go outside. He never had a problem even out there. If you didn't know he was blind, you couldn't tell by watching him.
Bo died a few years later, but I'll never forget that he dealt so well with his blindness. An animals' adaptability is something to behold, and we humans could learn a thing or 2 from them.
