Hi- I was trying for ages last night to come onto TCS. I finally made it on this morning.
I'm not really sure, if this thread belongs in the Health or Behavior or maybe even the breeders corner? but I have a few questions.
I have a Orange Eyed White Persian, She has a Brown Tabby father and her mother is a white, there are about 15 white cats in Muffins pedigree, some blue eyed, some odd eyed , some orange eyed.
I have known Muffin since she was two hours old and got her as a present for my birthday from Nana(Nana bred her), We have noticed that she has never came to her name nor does she react to loud sounds.
It wasn't until last night when we clicked and thought maybe she's deaf.
So i'm sitting there, Screaming as loud as I can(coz all the cats are happily eating their food) and all the cats run opposite directions, one even tryed to climb up the wall and muffin sat there didn't even flick an ear.
Is she deaf? or is she just being snobby?
Also if she is deaf, will we be able to breed from her? and if not will we have to keep her inside all her life, for fear of getting hot by a car.
Any help appreciated. Thanks. Sam.
