When he tips over, he picks himself up and continues on his way, determined to get where hes going. Tippy is tightly bonded with Pitty Pat, another CH kitty, and you will often find them snuggling together.

He also loves to snuggle with his humans and hell sidle up to you or crawl in your lap for love and attention. Tippy cant jump or climb (no counter surfing here!), so precautions need to be taken around steps so he doesnt fall. He loves to play and can propel himself great distances through the air to capture a toy and he needs someone who will take time to play with him daily to help strengthen his balance and coordination. Tippy also loves to be brushed and enjoys a gentle massage at the end of the day to relax those muscles that worked so hard.
