My name is Orion!

Orion is still a young kitten with much of his personality remains to be unknown. Of what we can see so far, he is playful, energetic and has a great appetite! He is growing quickly and loves to be held, pet and played with.

Orion has a mild manifestation of 'wobbly kitty syndrome'. 'Wobby Kitty Syndrome' is also known as cerebellar hypoplasia, a neurological condition where the cerebellum of the brain does not develop properly, resulting in a slightly lack of coordination. He can sometimes have an wobbly walk, slight tremors and clumsiness but it is not painful, it not contagious to other cats, dogs or humans and it does not affect their life expectancy. It does not get worse - so what you see is what you get. This usually occurs when mama cat contracted a deadly and devastating virus called 'Feline Panleukopenia' which can be passed to the kittens. There is no cure for this however having a home where having easy access to the litterbox and food/water bowls is important to sometimes having non-slip mats for food and water dishes.

Orion will be neutered when he is old/big enough. He is up to date on his vaccines and flea/tick preventatives. His litter has been tested for FIV/FL and is negative.

We do not know how he would do with dogs - this is something we have not tested. He likes to play with his other kitty friends. He does well with kids and all people.
