Sue,
Day before yesterday I was working in my garden, it was hot and REAL humid, and I broke out into a tremendous sweat. The perspiration poured into my eyes, and I rubbed them. To make a long story short, the corneal abrasion I got about a year and a half ago when a branchlet poked me in the eye has recurred. I went to the eye doctor yesterday, and I have to go back today. I'm sitting here with big wrap around glasses on, because the light hurts my eye, although it's better than it was yesterday, when it was TERRIBLE!
So I'm not sure if I'm seeing your cat right with one eye closed and looking through these dark glasses with my good right eye, but I think you've got a long-winged dagger moth/Acronicta longa.
Is this it?
I hope my typing is right - I'm going slow, trying to hold down the typos.

I was going to say an Impressive dagger moth but really don't have a clue. So, I am happy that Miss Sherry thinks it is a dagger moth. I am sorry that your eye is acting up again. There is nothing worse than a painful itchy eye. Take care of it!

Thanks Sherry and Elisabeth
for those quick responses..
I looked in my books at Dagger-moth, but did not find that specific one..It sure is pretty and it is actually making its cocoon while I write here..lol
Sherry, you are amazing with even just ONE!!! EYE working 100%..You have no idea how much I appreciate everything I havce learned so far from you.. I study a lot myself but your knowledge is amazing!!!
Hope you eye gets better soon, I hate any injury involving the eye, it just plain hurts...
So, thanks again and hope you feel better soon...
Butterfly-Greetings

I went back to the eye doctor this afternoon. I can't believe how much improved I am already! The doctor says the eye heals faster than any other part of the body, and I can believe it! I'm supposed to go back Friday. He showed me pictures of my eye and how the old scar tissue doesn't properly seat - it may come undone again. He told me some things to do to try and keep it from happening again, and the procedure they do if it should recur, which I'd rather not discuss. :(
Remember my orange caterpillar from several years ago? It was some type of dagger moth. With dagger moths, the cats are prettier than the adult moth!
