Located in Wayland, MA, she is ready to find a special home where she can thrive alongside a furry friend.

About Snickers

Meet Snickers, a four-month-old kitten who is perfectly imperfect. She has a condition known as Cerebellar Hypoplasia (CH), which means a part of her brain is underdeveloped. While this may sound alarming, it simply makes her a wobbly kitty. Snickers can still indulge in all the playful antics of a typical kitten, including eating, using her litterbox, and, of course, cuddling. CH is a non-progressive condition, meaning it requires no special vet care. However, she does need a single-story home or a way to block stairs since her unsteady gait can be a bit risky around them. It's important that she goes to a home with another young cat or kitten to keep her company. Are you ready to welcome this special girl into your life? Snickers is eager to prove that being different can be beautiful.
