This pretty girl has surgery booked to remove her remaining eye due to cancer. Any advice on helping her transition to blind life would be much appreciated!

This may be obvious but maybe not moving furniture after the surgery and maybe planning ahead and rethink the way furniture may be suitable for her. For example if a sleeping spot is a bit hard to reach maybe get her used to some easier route to it.

I have no experience with blind cats but I would think it would help. Cats have a very good ability to memorize their space but it needs to stay the same for a blind cat.
