My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Adam and his siblings are an adorable bunch of special needs kittens. They have a condition called cerebellar hypoplasia, probably because of a virus their mother had while they were in utero. This condition causes jerky movement, tremors and uncoordinated motion. Some have trouble walking and fall quite often. Tremors are worse when they are excited, but subside somewhat when they are at ease. This will not get better or worse as the kittens age. They generally will lead a normal life with special considerations. They will not be able to handle stairs and will need easy access to litter boxes. Adam is the most affected by this condition. He has very limited use of his back legs. It doesn't seem to bother him at all. He plays and uses the litter box and seems to have a grand time playing with his sibling. He will need the most care to make sure he won't hurt himself in a home setting.
