Story
Meet Radish – A Sweet Soul with a Wobbly Walk and a Heart Full of Love Radish is a 3-year-old neutered male Domestic Shorthair with a condition called cerebellar hypoplasia (CH), sometimes affectionately called “wobbly cat syndrome.” His case is on the severe side, so Radish stumbles and falls often—but he doesn’t let that stop him from loving life in his own gentle way. Despite his unsteady steps, Radish uses his litter box reliably and prefers the simple comforts of a calm environment. He’s not on any medication and doesn’t require specialized care—just a little awareness and a lot of love. Radish is a creature of habit and peace. He’s happiest lounging in front of the sliding glass door, watching the world go by. While he tends to stick to one room during the day, we’ve caught signs that he explores a little at night—proving he has a quiet curiosity, even if he’s not one to roam much. He lives for head scratches and attention from his humans and will meow to greet you with a soft, raspy voice that melts hearts. He prefers wet food (and insists on a plate instead of a bowl—his unique dining style leads to some hilarious tipping adventures). His long fur is as soft as his temperament and benefits from daily brushing to keep shedding in check. Because of his frequent tumbles, Radish would do best in a home without small children, where he can feel safe and relaxed. He would be a perfect fit for someone looking for a companion to share quiet moments, warm laps, and cozy window views. Radish doesn’t need a perfect home—just one with patience, gentleness, and a deep appreciation for the beautifully imperfect. Ready to open your heart and home to Radish? He’s waiting by the door. GENERAL INFO: Housebroken?: Yes, we think so Non-Shedding?: No Good with cats?: Yes Good with dogs?: Unknown Qualifies for Seniors for Seniors?: No 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. We are on all social media at @umbrellaofhope and we invite you to follow us and share which helps more people see and adopt our pets.
