My fluffernutter wobblecat also barks!

He rocks forward while vocalizing, then recoils as if from the force of his screm/bark/wail

He also purrs with his mouth open, loves diving into his play tunnels, and has to put his brother in a headlock in order to co-groom and *still* misses half his licks

Last night, I was almost asleep when my ~8yo fluffernutter wobblecat sneezed so hard he fell backwards off the edge of the bed

(Only injury was to his pride)

And just now, his brother--who is actually clever and trained himself to be my PTSD support cat--got jumpscared by the tip of his own tail

Don't suppose the cat is cuddle-motivated?

My CH wobblecat is vehemently opposed to pilling

But my other cat has become more chill about pills; key was ensuring I never sneak or surprise him with it

I pull him into my lap for cuddle time, set the pill bottle in view, do like 10-15 mins of cuddles

No caption I write is going to properly prepare you for what Nibbler does here, so all I’ll say is: When a #wobblecat gets the zoomies, they *really* get the zoomies. #CHcat

I don’t think I actually shared the side-by-sides though.

(This was also right after we got Nibbler, who had been given a hair buzzin’ shortly before. Little noodle has a lot more fur now.)
Side-by-sides of three cats and their pillow-like facsimiles. The top cat is orange and large, with his belly exposed; the middle cat is black and wearing a bow tie, looking quite regal; the bottom cat (a wobblecat) is also black, but laying on his side and having recently been given quite a haircut. Their left-column counterparts have an uncanny vibe about them.

Nibbler giving little brother energy on the reg. #CHcat #wobblecat #blep
A long-hair orange cat and a long-haired black cat sit on wooden floor. The orange cat (left) looks at the camera while the black cat (right, slightly farther back) looks toward the orange cat. The black cat also has his tongue out in a blep. Note: The black cat has cerebellar hypoplasia (CH), which makes him a wobble cat. It also makes him a regular blepper. A long-hair orange cat and a long-haired black cat sit on wooden floor. The orange cat is now in the background and slightly blurred but is looking off to the left. The black cat is now much closer to “front and center,” looking in the direction of the viewer. He still has his tongue out in a blep. Note: The black cat has cerebellar hypoplasia (CH), which makes him a wobble cat. It also makes him a regular blepper.

Got this crochet pet hat courtesy of a coworker, who made it as a prototype/proof of concept. Nibbler was thrilled to model for some glamor shots 😽 #CHcat #WobbleCat
A long-haired black cat is standing tall on all fours, facing the camera. He is wearing a two-tone light blue/aqua crochet hat with its own “ears.” He looks quite perplexed. This cat has cerebellar hypoplasia (AKA wobble cat syndrome) and cannot usually stand in one spot or move for too long without falling — but he always gets back up!

Sometimes Nibbler kinda looks like a puppet, and I mean that in the best, most adorably doofy way possible. #CHcat #wobblecat
A long-haired black cat is seen leaning most of his back against the corner of a door frame and a closed door. His front two paws are spread out in front of him, each angled somewhat diagonally in opposite directions. He is holding his right, rear leg up in the air, aimed to the left side of the photo. His tongue is also out, licking his upper lip, and his two bottom fangs are visible beneath. His eyes are looking upward slightly, though seemingly at nothing in particular. Note: This cat has cerebellar hypoplasia (“CH”), which affects his coordination and fine motor control. Colloquially, he’s known as a wobble cat.

It’s a little past midnight so it was technically yesterday, but we’ve had our adorable wobble boi for a year now 😽 We love our little noodle so much and celebrated with “cake,” a new toy, and a (very small) taste of ice cream.

Happy first Gotcha Day, Nibbler!! 💜☺️

There’s definitely something going on in that slightly damaged brain, but I couldn’t tell ya what. #CHcat #wobblecat
A black, long-haired cat with cerebellar hypoplasia is pictured standing upright on his front two legs, in the middle of a hallway. He is facing the camera but his head is turned to his right, with his tongue sticking out slightly and his eyes looking a bit perplexed. This is Nibbler and he is The Blep King. Note: Similar to the first picture, but zoomed in more and now with Nibbler facing the camera more directly.

“They will know me by my blep.”

A long-haired black cat laying on his side, green eyes wide and head held high, his tongue partially sticking out. He is staring away from the camera, toward the bottom-right portion of the image, and he rests partially on a light-blue-and-white rug, partially on a wood floor. He is the undisputed King of Bleps. Note: Nibbler has Cerebellar Hypoplasia, a condition in which his cerebellum is under-developed. This makes coordination more difficult and leads to the colloquial moniker of “wobble cat” for cats with this condition.

He is staring away from the camera, toward the right portion of the image, and he rests partially on a light grey rug.

Waking up from a nap to this little floof just Halfway-to-Halloween Wednesday bleppin’. #CHcat #wobblecat
A black cat (named Nibbler) is sitting on a carpet, in a sphinx-like pose, with an orange jack-o-lantern sock in between his front paws. Nibbler has his tongue out very slightly, and there are clear white reflections in his eyes, creating an adorable, almost cartoon-like expression. He is the undisputed Blep King.

Nibbler doesn’t typically have the kind of coordination that allows him to freely scratch himself the same way most cats do. But sometimes, he falls into a position that makes things more manageable.

“More manageable” still means lot of well-intentioned air-scritches, though😽 #CHcat #wobblecat

When you’re a #wobblecat, sometimes this is what peak drinking fountain performance looks like (feat. Fireball).

And now we go live to News with Nibbler! Nibbler, what’s the latest?

#CHcat #wobblecat
The upper half (mane to ears) of a long-haired black cat is visible in the foreground, on the left side of the image. The background is blurred, giving the image a portrait effect. The cat — Nibbler, AKA The Blep King — has his tongue sticking out and a perplexed, almost blank stare on his face. With the right imagination, he looks vaguely similar to a news reporter live on the scene. He was, however, not expecting to have to deliver news of any kind.

We really need to find a foster (or even better, a home) for this little cutie, Charcoal. She is #CHCat (aka #WobbleCat) with moderate CH & she doesn’t like most other cats but absolutely LOVES all humans. She’s extremely sweet and very soft.

Big brother Pharoah trills musically (he prefers not to vocalize at all, but his humans can be dummy)

Meanwhile Justify is a wobblecat, and he barks and wails with his whole body such that he sometimes knocks himself over <.<

I call my pair fluffernutters partly because of their coloration! Their particular flavor of orange tabby with large swathes of white made me think of peanut butter and fluff when we adopted them <3
Two orange and white tabby cats laying on a bed covered in a fluffy, rumpled navy blanket against a greige wall Wobblecat Justify is on the left, looking over his shoulder at me and questioning why I haven't started snuggling him yet. He has one forepaw jammed into his brother's side, suggesting that I interupted him bothering his big brother Self-trained PTSD support cat Pharoah is on the right, loafed up and wondering what he could possibly have done in a past life to deserve being pestered during naptime. He's about twenty seconds from hopping off the bed to see if he can find a quieter location for a nap Pharoah

Capsule or tablet?

Our vet noted said some cats get very drooly with the capsules in particular

We make sure to specify tablets when I get wobblecat Justify his gabapentin (medical PTSD - entirely warranted! - has made him spicy) because otherwise he gets very upset over the drooling

Our first toy of this kind was secondhand (grandparents' cat rejected)

Motion-activated, poke out + wave its tail

Eventually, Pharoah would rip the tail out, + present it as a kill at the top of the stairs

That company didn't sell replacement bits, else we'd have kept it; Wobblecat also adored it
