About Armadilla aka Dilla

Meet Armadilla, affectionately known as Dilla. She’s a charming little girl who’s ready for adoption! At around 2 years old, Dilla came to us from a local county shelter, where she faced tough times. Initially, she was suspected to have been hit by a car. After receiving the care she needed, she stabilized, but it became clear she has cerebellar hypoplasia (CH), also known as 'wobbly cat syndrome.' This condition affects her balance and coordination, making her a bit clumsy. Thankfully, it's not painful, contagious, or progressive. Dilla needs a loving home that understands her unique wobble and can provide a safe environment free from dangerous stairs or sharp edges. Dilla is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and FeLV/FIV negative. She is incredibly sweet and affectionate, and she gets along well with gentle animals and older children who will give her the patience she deserves. Dilla simply wants a family to shower her with love as she wobbles through life. Ready to add a little wobble to your home?
