Meet Whiskey
Whiskey is a 4 month old boy who was brought to us as a stray. He is in foster care and his foster family says:

"Hi, I'm Whiskey! I am a young long haired kitten looking for my furever home! I have come a long way since I was first trapped outdoors as a baby. My brother and I were the only survivors of our litter. It was discovered that we have a special needs condition called Cerebellar Hypoplasia (CH), which means that we can be a little wobbly. This is the result of our mom being sick when she was pregnant with me. But don't worry, I get around just fine! I can use the litter box like a normal kitty, eat and drink without a problem, and run around and play with my brother! I can go upstairs, but going down the stairs is very challenging for me. A home with no stairs or few stairs would be purrfect! My condition does not require any medication or special vet visits, and my foster mom considers my CH to be mild! Since I've been in my foster home, I have gone from a scared, hissy and swatty kitty to a lap cat! I run at the door when my foster mom comes in because I just want to be loved and held! I don't even mind when the 100 pound dog licks me! I love to sit on the couch with my foster parents and watch TV. I especially love the kitties that live with my foster mom, so I would prefer a home that has another kitty to play with and keep me company and make me feel safe. I hope I get adopted soon!"

Whiskey is neutered, micro-chipped, and up to date on (age appropriate) vaccines.
