cat toy in ACTION!

I made a prototype of the cat toys I intend to sell to help raise money for my eye surgery today.  It's shaped like a cat head with one good eye and one bad one-- just like me!  I was so excited to play with a new toy that I could hardly wait until I was finished sewing!  I ran around the house with it, doing back fllips and batting at it through the chair legs in the dining room.  After a good long workout, and a real good buzz, I can sincerely tell you that it is cat tested and approved!   So be on the look out for the real-deal to be on sale real soon!

Hello everyone!  My name is Vishnu and I'm a tuxedo kitty who lives in Minneapolis with my mom and dad, and my sister, Myrtle.  I have been having some problems with my right eye for about two years now, where the iris has been slowly turning dark brown, and my pupil is no longer able to contract with the light.  I have been seeing an animal opthamologist for a while, and he performs tests on my eye to find out what is happening.  He told me that I have a disease called melanoma, and it has recently progressed into a tumor.  While we are unsure if the tumor is cancerous or benign, we do know that we have to have my eye removed so that it does not spread to the rest of my body and make me sick.  I am holding a fundraiser to help pay for the surgery, so stay tuned for details on the cat toys that I plan to make and how you can help!

ps... the second photo is of me and my sister, Myrtle.  In the other photos you can see how my right eye is darker than my left.
