I'm starting to think Bing is getting blind. He doesn't seem aware of you if your are near by and being quiet. and he tends to walk into things and casually fall out the hutch ::) he is an REW and I have heard of them going blind because of their eyes.
 
Re: am i being paranoid?

Never heard REW are prone to blindness?

How old is he, is there any sign of cataracts?

Re: am i being paranoid?

I'm not sure if they are prone to blindness but lots of my friends REWs went blind,
i'll check his eyes now
 
Re: am i being paranoid?

His eyes are a pale white colour with a red patch in the middle, but when i foirst got him his eyes were pure red but now they are not
 
How old is he? my himi obviously has red eyes & they have really faded over the years. But I wouldn't say that she has probelms seeing. If it were cataracts then the pupil would be white. How long have the eyes been this light?
