About Topaz

Meet Topaz! He's often affectionately called "Sir Topaz Van Wobblington" by his foster family. This little gentleman sports a magnificent mustache and a spirited determination that refuses to quit. Topaz has a moderate case of cerebellar hypoplasia (CH), giving him his signature wobbly walk, but that doesn't slow him down. He dives into playtime with gusto, exploring every nook and cranny, even if he stumbles now and then. For him, falling is just a small hiccup in his adventures. He’s still figuring out stairs and hasn't mastered climbing a cat tree yet. While wrestling isn't his forte due to coordination challenges, he finds joy in plenty of other activities that keep him entertained. That charming mustache makes him look quite like a tiny Charlie Chaplin; it’s impossible not to smile at this little face! Topaz is in search of a unique family that understands CH and will appreciate his perseverance as he navigates life. A safe, CH-friendly home will be essential for him to thrive. He has a close bond with his brother Sapphire and would love to find a forever home where they can stay together. Topaz might wobble and take unexpected detours, but he's a testament to how extraordinary a little difference can be! Could you be the family this mustachioed superstar deserves?
