Hi, my name is Samantha, mom to four wonderful children
I found this forum looking for some info on a condition called Cerebellar Hypoplasia. I have 2 dogs (a jug and a jack russel) 3 cats, a corn snake, a bearded dragon and 2 african dwarf frogs.
Does anyone here have any experience? My daughter's cat had kittens 4 weeks ago and one of the kittens has this. From what we are hearing, they are very hard to adopt out because people don't want a cat with problems. I think I am going to take him. I fell in love with him (all of them really) and had decided to take him before we realized anything was *wrong*. My only worry is that we live in a 3 story house. I know from what I am reading I will probably have to use a baby gate to keep him away from the stairs, and keep his litter box on the main floor where he would stay. Is there anything else I should know?

He is absolutely gorgeous and sweet (like all kittens) and he will have a good home with us.
