These special kittens came from a sweet mama kitty here in Sweetwater. They’re special needs and will need adopters who understand their needs. Keep an eye out for them, and contact FFF if interested 🥰
!!!WOBBLE BABY WOBBLE!!!
Ready for an adorable preview? Meet eight-week-old siblings Elko (white and brown tabby female), Henderson (aka Hennie - torbie female), and Sparks (orange and white tabby)! What’s so special about these cuties? They all three have cerebellar hypoplasia (CH), or wobbly cat syndrome. CH is a rare neurological disorder that affects a cat's balance and coordination. It occurs when the cerebellum, the part of the brain that controls these functions, doesn't develop properly. What that means for this trio is that they wobble everywhere they go and are developing slower than “normal” kittens would. They celebrated their eight-week birthday by all eating solid food for the first time ever! They’re still learning to use a litter box, so for the time being, they spend their days in a spacious playpen with a reusable p*e pad flooring for easy cleanup. We’re not sure how they’ll progress as they get older, but we do know they’re going to be the cutest felines for their forever families! Since it will take a special adopter to take one (or two or all!) of them home, we’re launching them earlier than normal. They’re still about 4-8 weeks away from adoption, but we’d love to chat with interested adopters now. If you’re interested in adopting Elko, Hennie or Sparks, apply online at feralfelinefriends.org! And stay tuned for some videos to learn more about CH cats!
