Wobbly cat


This kitten has congenital cerebellar hypoplasia.
These cats are known for their "drunken sailor" walk, which is why they're known endearingly as "wobbly cats."

Unless a CH cat has other health issues, their life expectancy is the same as a cat's without CH. Since the condition is non-progressive, it will never get worse — and in some cases, owners say that their cats become more capable over time.

  1. I had a "wobbly cat" - it eventually grew out of it and was completely normal. We did name it "Goofy" though....and the name stuck.

  2. That's a three-tissue video.
