username: Schainukan
name: Taiga
gender: Mare
halter color: Light gray
how she became blind: Everything was fine with her eyes, until months later, that is. The diagnosis is cataract. None knows why Taiga got it, as it's something only old horses can get. The horrible thing she had to go through was lossing her eyesight more and more until she became fully blind with being aware of it from week to week. It only started with seeing things slightly fuzzy, at times double then more unclear, almost as looking through fog. It worsen and the 'fog' only became thicker. In the end, she couldn't see a thing, didn't know where she was anymore. Taiga had to learn everything from the begining, like a helpless little foal.

name: Anna Conda {she reminds me of a snake}
gender: Mare
halter color: Light blue
how s/he became blind: Anna was always a sneaky young filly, true to her name. She loved to mess with her friends, sneaking up on them and constantly pranking them. It was one of her favorite pastimes, that is, until it got her injured. On one particular day she was preparing the best "surprise" ever. It was all set up, the only thig she had to do was lead someone into her trap. Which, well, would cause a beehive to fall on the victim, covering them in honey and possibly an angry swarm of bees. Yeah, she has a twisted sense of humor when it comes to pranks. Anyways, her mother had been off grazing, leaving Anna to do whatever she pleased. She snuck off into the forest, fully intent on meeting up with her foalhood friends and leading them home to her trap. But her plans were stopped short when she came upon a sleeping deer. Normally she would pass the poor critter up, but today, she was feeling extra devious. Anna snuck up on the sleeping deer, and gave a loud squeal. The deer scrambled in fright, but not before delivering a harsh kick to the fillies' face, cutting her eye and causing permanent blindness in said eye. Since then, she hasn't snuck up on another sleeping animal, or bothered trying to sneak up on anyone...

name: Raptor in the Grass "Tiger"
gender: stallion.
halter color: dark green
how s/he became blind: Born healthy and alive Tiger was a young colt at a neighboring farm. He was bought and brought to Snowy Elk Stables when he was just little under a year old. He was full of life and loved to just cause trouble and terror in the world. So when the colt starting getting sick everyone began to panic. It all started with change in his behavior. His once full of life spirit was now depressing to even look at. He seemed to have no energy and took little notice in the things he loved. Worried he was tested and found that he had come down with equine influenza. At first it was unknown on how the foal got such a virus. Usually this virus can only be spread through other horses and there hadn't been an epidemic outbreak on the farm. But then it was discovered that the barn he was born had had an outbreak and sold the colt without informing anyone of the case. The virus had gotten extremely serious before anyone had time to take notice. He was quickly isolated to prevent exposure to the other horses.The symptoms Tiger had were constant coughing with high fever followed by nasal discharge. Everything to get worse before it got even slightly better. The colt stopped eating and lost a lot of weight. Discharge started coming from his eyes. He was treated daily but his immune system seemed to reject the treatment. Almost all hope was lost as the colt slowly weakened. After the 5th day arrangements was made for euthanasia. But then the foal started showing signs of recovery. He began to eat and show more life in his step. By the end of the second week the foal was almost completely healthy again. When looking over him Tiger looked fine till you got to his eyes. Tiger's eyes hadn't fully clouded over but was slowly doing so. The Equine flu had triggered a case of Moon Blindness in the colt. Sadly this was a common case found in horses. Tiger did not go blind right away. The Moon Blindness would usually flare up and then go away for a few weeks before recurring again. Finally the last attack seemed to be the worse. Tiger eventually went blind.
