Cat With Brain Condition Can't Walk Straight

Tumbleweed is an 8 year old stray cat that surprised both the staff at RAPS Cat Sanctuary and the vets at RAPS Animal Hospital by staying alive as long as he did. Tumbleweed has cerebellar hypoplasia - a neurological condition in which the movement centre of the brain is underdeveloped. This means Tumbleweed can't walk straight! It's up to the staff at RAPS to come up with a plan to improve his quality of life!

Just curious, could he have a custom walker to help stabilize him for part of the day so he can get some supervised outside time.🤞

Not a bad idea! It might be challenging to get Tumbleweed to learn to move in something like that, especially at his age...
