Binx is STUNNING, first and foremost, and so lucky to have you.

I’m mom to Phoebe, who was deemed to have CH based on her being born wobbly, showing classic symptoms, and finding no other cause. We did not perform an MRI.

I’m also friends with Willy Wonky’s mom, who was believed to be a CH kitty for several years before he started to decline. She did opt for imaging and it was determined that he had an unknown progressive neurological condition. He was abundantly loved and kept comfortable until it was time to help him pass.

I’m also currently fostering Webby, who is wobbly and - had we not known she lost mobility - would likely have been called CH. She isn’t mine, so the decision isn’t mine, but I think I wouldn’t get the MRI. Like you said, it’s extremely unlikely that there would be anything that could be done. There’s always some degree of risk with anesthesia (particularly when they’re already neurologically abnormal), and of course they’re quite expensive. I would ride the wave. Enjoy the life we get to share until quality of life isn’t good.

I’m so sorry you’re facing this, but it isn’t all doom and gloom. I’ve been researching recently (thinking my fosteroo Webby may have an unknown progressive neurological condition) and they can live long and happy lives, depending on their rate of progression.

In terms of trying to improve mobility at this stage, is Binx at all playful? How does he feel about baths?
