Blind cat and her human climb Ireland's tallest mountain for charity

Stevie -- a blind rescue cat -- just so happens to be an expert hiker.

On April 26, Stevie -- along with her human, Patrick Corr, and his twin brother, Eoghan -- decided to make a difference by climbing Ireland's highest mountain to raise money for local animal shelters.
