Quote:@Majingilane I have been wanting to ask you I have seen in some close up of dark mane is he going blind in his right eye or is just the way his eye is any info on that?

I was wondering the same?
That injury happened some time ago, I think it was 2014. I'm not entirely sure which interaction caused it, I don't know if it was a fight with one of his brothers, or a scrap with a female.

The pic is a bit blurry, but here you can see the wound.

Here's a video of him roaring where you can see the wound.



And here you can see it started to heal up.

So, I don't think he lost the sight on that eye right away, but what happened after that injury that eye started to get of a darker shade, I think I read somehwere that maybe the strike or bite that caused that hit a blood vessel.

The wound healed nicely, but judging from recent pics and the latest videos of him, I have to agree with you, I think that eye is turning more and more white, so he may have lost is sight there.

Still, there are many cases of dominant cats with sight in a single eye, so I would worry too much.
