Dill is a sweet, affectionate little boy who has had a difficult start to life. After sadly losing his mum at just one week old, he was hand-raised alongside his sister Cassia and has grown into a wonderfully loving kitten who thrives on human company.
Dill has mild cerebellar hypoplasia (CH), sometimes known as Wobbly Cat Syndrome, which affects his balance and coordination. His wobble is a little more noticeable than Cassia’s, but it certainly does not stop him getting where he wants to go. Rather than running normally, he often gets around with the sweetest little bunny hops. The condition is not painful or contagious and will not get worse.
He loves playing, chasing toys and exploring just like any other kitten, but when the adventures are over he is very happy curling up on your lap for a cuddle.
Dill can live with other friendly cats and children aged 6+ who are cat savvy, but is not suitable for a home with dogs. He is looking for an indoor home, ideally with access to a secure catio or fully cat-proofed garden.
Dill has been raised with his sister Cassia and they can be adopted separately or together. Cassia does sometimes suckle Dill for comfort, which could cause issues for him, so adopters wishing to offer them a home together would need to be mindful of this.
We’re a foster-based charity, so each cat lives in a home environment before adoption. This helps us see how they cope with things like children, other cats, and dogs.
Because we don’t always know a cat’s full history (especially if they were a stray), our guidance is based on what we’ve observed in foster care. For example:
If a cat has lived happily with children, we’ll note they’re suitable for family homes.
If a cat is very timid and hasn’t been around children, we may suggest an adult-only home.
The same applies for cats and dogs — suitability depends on their behaviour and what we’ve seen first-hand.
As a foster-based rescue, when one cat is adopted their space is quickly filled by another in need. If a cat is adopted into an unsuitable home and has to return, it unsettles them and creates real challenges with our limited foster spaces.
We also believe that, where possible, cats should have safe access to the outdoors. Unless a cat is specifically listed as indoor-only, outdoor access is a requirement for adoption.
Our priority is always to match each cat with the home where they’ll feel safe, settled, and happy.
This kitten comes with our kitten package, which includes neutering, microchipping and the initial vaccinations.
Instead of applying for individual cats you can open a general adoption form here General Interest Form.
