I have what I assume is an '07 cal king purchased from a local pet store. She's always had a little difficulty feeding but lately its gotten worse. she strikes at her prey and completely misses. after a little while passes I think she just gives up and leaves her meal alone.

I feed her live adult mice, and she is fully capable of handling them, but sometimes she just seems confused. Is she just dumb or may she actually not be able to see?
