Zipper - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Look at this handsome little hunk- we're all in love!! Zipper is a young adult male around 1-2 years old and he is just such a friendly love bug. He has a chronic condition he was born with, called Cerebellar Hypoplasia (CH for short) - also known as 'wobbly cat syndrome' - but he makes it work pretty well with navigating around! He just needs some minor tweaks to the home to accommodate his mobility, including a low-entry litterbox and access to any stairs blocked off. But with the right space this boy easily can move and groove!
