Chandler is a medium-sized, male Domestic Short Hair kitten. He’s a playful black cutie with a loving disposition, who is neutered, vaccinated, and house trained.

About Chandler

Chandler is an endearing black kitten with adorable white tufts that sets him apart. He has ‘Wobbly Cat’ Syndrome (cerebellar hyperplasia), which affects his balance and coordination. This means he needs some extra care, such as soft surfaces to walk on and bowls that are at the right height. Those minor adjustments will make a big difference as he grows and learns to manage his body better. Despite his condition, Chandler is a little survivor with a fiercely independent spirit and a love for cuddles. He enjoys playing with anything he can find, though he can be a bit clumsy and often needs to rest while figuring out his toys. Sharing food isn't a problem for him—except when it comes to special treats like boiled chicken, which he closely guards! Chandler uses litter boxes with low entrances and prefers deeper litter to help him maintain his balance. His loving and playful nature makes him a wonderful companion, and he gets along well with other cats, dogs, and children. This affectionate little guy is all set for the right home where he can be accepted for who he is, even if that means occasionally falling down. Join Chandler this Saturday and Sunday at Petco from 12-3pm, or contact his foster, Judy, at 213-840-2766. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
