Benny's Story

Hi! I'm Benny, the kitten with a zest for life! My days are packed with fun; I love exploring every nook and cranny of my cozy foster home. I'm the first to greet anyone with my sweet purrs and goofy antics, making everyone laugh with my energetic play. I'm curious about everything and can't wait to find a forever home where I can share all my love and funny moments. If you're looking for a bundle of joy to brighten your days, I'm your guy! Let's make endless memories together! Benny and his siblings have Cerebellar Hypoplasia (CH). CH in cats is a non-progressive neurological disorder where the cerebellum—the part of the brain responsible for balance and coordination—is underdeveloped, often due to a pregnant cat contracting the feline panleukopenia virus (FPV) while carrying kittens. Symptoms include a wobbly, uncoordinated gait, head tremors, and poor balance, but CH cats are not infectious, can live happy lives, and do not experience worsening symptoms over time. While there is no cure, proper care includes providing a safe environment, large litter boxes, and traction aids, but importantly, these cats are not in pain and do not have a shortened lifespan. Benny is scheduled to be altered. He is feline leukemia/FIV/HW negative and vaccines are up to date. He is not declawed. Because Benny is in a foster home, an adoption application is required before an appointment can be set up to meet this amazing feline: https://windmillanimalrescue.com/cat-adoption/ Adoption information and fees can be found on our website: http://www.windmillanimalrescue.com. Adoption fee includes initial immunizations, neuter/spay, microchip and any other test/vet visits needed.

ADOPTION INFORMATION To adopt an animal you must complete these steps: Fill out the Pre-Adoption Application. Obtain by writing to windmillanimalrescue@yahoo.com. Wait for approval from at least three Board Members. Select and meet your pet before, after, or during the first two steps. Obtain all necessary supplies for your new pet before adoption day. Food and litter are available for purchase at the shelter. Complete the Final Adoption Agreement and pay the necessary adoption fee before leaving the Windmill Animal Rescue with your new forever friend. Because of the shelter circumstances, the cats are indoor/outdoor kitties. It is preferred, but not required, that they spend their lives as indoor, non-declawed cats (some cats arrive already declawed). These pets need a forever home with lots of love and attention.
