What a heartwarming video. He’s totally blind, but plays like any other cat.
I’ve long thought that disability in pets is more troubling to the humans in the household than to the animals in question. Oskar is adorable.
I saw that video a few weeks ago and was very touched by it.
It made me think that the next time I adopt a cat I might look for one with special needs. I’ve always believed in trying to give animals that may have a lower chance of being adopted a chance (which is why I adopted my current cats as adults over getting a kitten) and I would expect a lot of people might not give a blind animal a chance even though it’s not really that big of a deal to an animal.
My first dog went blind in her old age and it wasn’t really a big deal. They don’t really depend on their sight the way people do.
Looks like there is a rescue that specifically tries to help blind cats find homes: http://blindcatrescue.com/ 
I just rescued a cat and delivered him to a local cat rescue volunteer this week. While at this house, the rescuer introduced me to all the cats she is taking care of. One of them was especially cool. A big black cat who spent almost all day sleeping in a huge drawer in this ladys bedroom. She had it fixed with a nice pillow and a bowl of food and water. I stroked the cat and she let out a really loud meow to express pleasure. Then, after a few minutes of petting her, she slowly got up, jumped out of the drawer and sauntered over to the bed, jumped up and plopped down on the owners bed and started cleaning herself.
The lady said, “can you believe she’s completely blind and completely deaf?”. I was amazed. She said the cat has been with her for 10 years and knows every square inch of the house by memory. Coolest cat ever.
We’re big fans of Oskar! We have our own blind cat, Wonton and he’s is a delight. I love how he maneuvers, but it’s never fun for him when we rearrange the furniture.

Aww what a cutie! It’s amazing how much they rely on smell and sound to get by.
We have no special needs kitties (though one cat, adopted as an adult, is…“special” ifyouknowwhatImean! And the other cat is just a ScaredyCat).
My sister has two that were rescued with injuries; one had a broken leg and a partial tail amputation, he only received treatment because she took him in. The second was worse off - hit by a car, shattered hind leg that something, a rat or a fox had been gnawing on, a BB-gun bullet in his neck…he’s a three-legged cat now, and a little bitchy, but otherwise doing very well. Her third cat is just fat.
We have a deaf cat. My vet told me that blind cats do well and deaf cats sometimes not so well. Our Cuth is very very weird, and strangely, very chatty. He has a lot of chirps and yodels and the like.
The video is adorable.
