That is a big mouse. Field rat? How much does cataract surgery cost for a cat? BTW, your cat is beautiful.

I don't remember if the mouse was really that big or if it just got tossed real close to the camera and it's a forced perspective thing.

They'd take the whole eye out, not just the lens.... Lens replacement at a kitty opthamologist was thousands. So I said... OK - how much to just take the whole eye out and sew it shut? (Thinking it'd only be a couple hundred bucks) - He said it'd be about $700. Gads... He's a teenage cat... and I'm not that hung up on appearances. So I decided to take him home and wait and see.... if he damaged it, which is a risk because he doesn't have good blink reflex in that eye, it'd be another story, but I just couldn't see spending that much if I can avoid it. It doesn't hurt him and he obviously gets around just fine.
