My story

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

 

 

 



 

Meet Stumble & Fumble — double the charm, double the joy

Stumble (black & white, male) and Fumble (gray & white, female) are two 6-month-old Domestic Medium–Long Haired kittens who just happen to have built-in playmate energy. They are not bonded, but they do wonderfully together and would be happy adopted as a pair — or could thrive individually in homes with another friendly cat.

Both kittens have Cerebellar Hypoplasia (CH), a non-progressive neurological condition that affects balance and coordination. In simple terms, their “balance center” didn’t fully develop before birth. CH is not painful, not contagious, and does not worsen over time. Stumble has a mild wobble, while Fumble is a bit more unsteady — and both have already learned how to navigate the world in their own adorable ways. They eat well, use the litter box reliably, and get around just fine in a kitten-safe environment.

These two are absolute sweethearts. They love being petted and enjoy belly rubs, soaking up affection until they’re ready to hop down and explore. They’re starting to play with string toys and become more confident with each passing day. They’re friendly with new people (a little petting helps break the ice!) and seem comfortable around other cats.

Stumble and Fumble are healthy, parasite-free, up to date on vaccinations, and will be spayed/neutered and microchipped prior to adoption.

They’d do best in homes that understand CH — think soft rugs for traction, ground-level lounging spots, and no very tall cat trees. In return, they offer gentle companionship, resilience, and a whole lot of heart.

Whether adopted together or separately into cat-friendly homes, Stumble and Fumble are ready to bring love, laughter, and a few happy wobbles into your life.

Umbrella of Hope does not have any strict rules on ages of children because all children are different, but our best approximation is that this animal would do best with children over the age of 5

Umbrella of Hope is an all-volunteer, donation-run, non-profit animal rescue based out of Pittsburg, CA that rescues animals from local shelters, places them in private foster homes, provides them with needed medical care and then finds them new homes. 

Also, ask us about our seniors for seniors program, where we adopt animals 5 years or older to qualified homes with a $5 donation as an adoption fee. All animals are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, treated for parasites and given any additional treatments (dental work, bloodwork etc) as recommended by our vet. 

Adoptions to veterans of the US Armed Services are ALWAYS free to thank you for your service.  

We thank Well Pet Vet Clinic for providing most of our veterinary services and give a special thanks to volunteer photographers Tanya, Barbara, Kristy, Christine, Teressa and Natalie.

More about this rescue

Umbrella of Hope exists to rescue, rehibilitate, and rehome animals from shelter situations with a focus on East Contra Costa County, California. Our goal is to reduce the euthanasia of adoptable animals through increased adoptions of those animals already born. Help increase public safety by reducing the number of strays and feral animals through population control who might carry disease or pose other dangers to the community. Provide resources to pet owners to enable them to be responsible forever guardians of their companion animals. To increase public awareness of homeless pets, encourage spay and neuter of companion animals, and promote adoption for the acquisition of family pets.
