Milkshake's Story

Cerebellar hypoplasia (CH)DOB: 11/2023<br/><br/>Meet Milkshake!<br/><br/>Milkshake is our delightfully wobbly boy who came to Colony Cats as a stray in November of 2024. This sweet, affectionate kitty has quickly become a favorite thanks to his loving personality and charming determination.<br/><br/>In fact, Milkshake made quite the impression right from the start. On his very first day with us, one of our volunteers wrote in her notes that he “loves wet food and is very sweet. He immediately rolled over to show his belly.” That perfectly sums up Milkshake — friendly, trusting, and always ready for affection.<br/><br/>Milkshake has a condition called cerebellar hypoplasia (CH). CH happens when the part of the brain that controls balance and coordination doesn’t fully develop before birth. It is not painful, not contagious, and it does not get worse over time. Cats with CH simply move a little differently — you may notice Milkshake wobble, sway, or have an unsteady walk.<br/><br/>Despite his wobbles, Milkshake lives a happy, active life and doesn’t let his condition slow him down. Like many CH cats, he may occasionally miss the mark at mealtime or make a bit of a mess, but with simple adjustments and a patient home he does just fine. Wobbly cats like Milkshake don’t just manage — they thrive.<br/><br/>Milkshake is a friendly, highly affectionate boy who loves people and enjoys attention. Because of his balance challenges, he benefits from a little extra help with things like grooming and keeping clean, but he more than makes up for it with his sweet personality and eagerness to be near his humans.<br/><br/>Milkshake is currently living in foster care, where he continues to charm everyone he meets. If you’d like to meet this lovable, wobbly boy, arrangements can be made through the shelter.<br/><br/>If you're looking for a loving, unique companion with a big heart and an adorable wobble, Milkshake may be the perfect match.<br/><br/>Milkshake has Cerebellar Hypoplasia: https://www.petmd.com/cat/conditions/neurological/c_ct_cerebellar_hypoplasia<br/><br/>**This cat is currently in a foster home and arrangements can be made for a meeting once you have applied with us. All cats are spayed or neutered, vaccinated and tested for FIV/FeLV.
