This male Domestic Short Hair cat is a senior and medium in size, with a beautiful black coat. Living at Misfit Felines Inc, he is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and fully house trained. He has special needs due to cerebellar hypoplasia, so he will thrive best in a compassionate home ready to support his extra requirements.

About Obo

This could be the start of something paw-some. When you settle in on the couch, Obo will wobble over from wherever he is just to be near you. He adores burrowing his head under your arm for cozy hugs and will always be curious about what's on your plate—he might even hope for a taste! Obo and his brother Meebs both have moderate to severe cerebellar hypoplasia. While they sometimes use a specially designed litterbox, they mostly rely on sturdy potty pads and can have the occasional accident—but always try their best. Obo is searching for a home where compassion and dedication shine. Solid surface floors are a must, as carpets don't work for his mobility needs, and you'll want to be prepared for creative couch climbing. Stair safety is required, so baby gates are helpful, and the new family should feel comfortable keeping potty pads out and managing a few mishaps. In return for your efforts, you'll enjoy the sweetest, most affectionate companionship. Obo and his brother could be adopted separately, though two loving cats can make life twice as joyful. Cerebellar hypoplasia causes Obo’s unique, unsteady movements but doesn’t cause pain or worsen over time. He is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, FIV/FeLV negative, and fostered at Misfit Felines Inc. When you adopt, you’ll even receive an adoption package of goodies valued at around $100 from participating pet stores. They are waiting with paws crossed! Apply now!
