Stumbles

A cute little kitten with cerebellar hypoplasia. Millions of cats with this condition are killed every year because people think they are in pain, or just don't want to deal with them. The truth is they need very little extra care, and are in no pain. in fact! She is the best cat we've ever had!

Not wanting to sound cruel, but they should be thankful most humans have the concept of taking care of creatures in their situation. If they were feral and out in the wild, I shudder to think how many would be abandoned by their mother (yes she would do it) and left to starve to death. I own cats my self and they can have a real survival of the fittest attitude.

Special needs cats seem to be cuter somehow :)

Very sweet kitten.

What she seems to illustrate especially well is the so-called "intention tremors" that are a symptom of CH. She shakes and trembles a lot when she's eating, climbing into her little hideout, or otherwise concentrating on a task. But we were all impressed at how neatly she slipped into the opening at 2:11. ;)

I wonder, does she shake more, the more she's enjoying her food?

Love your kitty!  I have a CH kitty named Buddy. He is not quite as wobbly as your kitty, but walks like he is marching or something. Pretty funny. I just love him to death!!! Wish I had a houseful of CH kitties!
