A shadow or a silly kitten sleeping in a crevice?

Update on Horse!
A little wobbly, but Horse is making great strides to meet her foster’s cat, an OKP alum, named Mom. She’s doing much better now since her aspiration pneumonia diagnosis and slowly exploring the big world that is the living room!
Spellbound by the lure of the wand🪄
Tommie, Bonnie, and Cammie came to OKP when they were about 9-10 weeks old. They were initially very, very scared - even just a sneeze would cause these kittens to scamper away. After weeks of patience and TLC, these kittens have started coming out of their shell and acclimating to their foster’s touch. They’re currently available for adoption and would be best fit for a home that understands that they're just a bunch of scaredy cats!😂
A proper latch accompanied with some suckling ASMR! 🥰 With kitten season in full swing, OKP wants to say thank you to all our fosters who dedicate their time and energy into keeping these kitten healthy!! We can't do this without you!
This morning’s adoption event!
Here is a very exciting kitten case from earlier this year! Little Pikachu!
Pikachu has moderate to severe Cerebellar hypoplasia which affects his ability to balance and walk. He was an OKP bottle baby and we would sit him upright in a flowerpot after feedings to avoid regurgitation. He is a super determined and energetic little dude who has been able to adapt to his issues well but still needs some help with daily activities. He was 'foster failed' aka adopted by his foster - who is one of our OKP officers!💖 See more cute throwback pictures of baby Pikachu on our fundraiser page!

Our sweet girl Chi is thriving in her foster home! Despite being paraplegic, she absolutely loves playing (and listening to music😅).
We have several special needs kiddos, like Chi, becoming available for adoption soon! Chi is unable to use her back legs and is incontinent, so she will need some extra help in the bathroom department!
She is such a sweetie and we cant wait for her to find a loving forever home!❤ Please email [email protected] for more info on this cute girl!
We have taken in a wobbly litter recently at OKP! These kiddos have Cerebellar Hypoplasia which is a fairly common condition in cats. This happens when the cerebellum of their brain, which controls balance and fine motor skills, doesn’t develop properly.
This leads to uncoordinated walking that can vary in severity from cat to cat. CH is not contagious or painful! These kitties can live long happy lives, and will adapt to their wobbly-ness as they get older. Some kitties with CH may require some modifications such as elevated dishes or pet stairs around the house.
Here are some other incredible kitties with #CerebellarHypoplasia
