WINSTON (above) was born about 2006 and has Cerebellar Hypoplasia. He only has it very mildly. He can walk, play, run and jump. He is very affectionate, and acts very kitten-like for his age. He has a lovely sunny personality and he loves attention and being stroked. He loves to roll over on his back to have his belly stroked.
The condition he has only affects his reactions to situations and he can be very nervous around new people. Due to his slow reactions and nervousness he will sometimes panic and his legs will make him run in the wrong direction to where his brain is telling him to go.
When he is picked up he will shake due to Cerebellar Hypoplasia, but if held close to the body when picked up he will settle. When he was a kitten he permanently shook and wobbled, and would run into things. As he has got older his condition has really improved. The vets are very happy with him, he takes no medication and is expected to live a long and happy life with love and care.
