Gabby Domestic Short Hair Waller, TX

Need a cuddle bug? Five month old Gabby is your girl! She is incredibly loving, starts purring upon eye contact, and isn't afraid to climb into anyone's lap for some attention and good chin scratches.

Adventurous, social, and curious describe Gabby to a tee. She loves to monitor the activity out the window and has plenty to chatter about with the birds. But if she's not doing that or playing with the other household animals, she might just be shadowing her humans, as she loves being by their sides. Fair warning: Gabby's been known to sleep on a face.

What makes Gabby "special needs" is a condition known as CH (Cerebellar Hypoplasia), which is caused by the cerebellum not being fully mature at the time of birth. This affects fine motor skills and is non-progressive. Gabby's CH is mild on the spectrum. It's in the still moments of intense focus or stalking a cat toy that her body may waver or her head might bob. These minor tremors do not impede her movements at all. She runs, jumps, and climbs with ease, and she's even keen on using a top entry litter box.

Simply put, Gabby is a dolls that deserves to be doted on. She would be an excellent companion to a resident cat or to a cat-friendly dog. Given that she's never not been around other animals, Gabby is best suited in a home with another pet.

Gabby is spayed and fully vaccinated, negative for FIV/FeLV, de-flead, and de-wormed. She has been in foster indoors since she was six weeks old (birthday is mid-October, 2016).
