Phoebe the CH Kitty - Children's Book & Plushie

Phoebe is a happy-go-lucky kitty who has Cerebellar Hypoplasia, also referred to as "CH" or "Wobbly Cats Syndrome".

CH is a developmental condition in which the cerebellum of the brain fails to develop properly. The cerebellum is the area of the brain which controls fine motor skills, balance, and coordination. The most typical symptoms are jerky or uncoordinated walking, and mild head tremors. There is no pain or discomfort and CH kitties will learn to adapt to their disability over time. Frustratingly, CH can be easily prevented by vaccinating female cats against panleukopenia prior to pregnancy.

Phoebe is no stranger here, and already has a number of products which help raise awareness as well as with fundraising for Kitty Kat Haven & Rescue, and although i swore I would never do another children's book again, when Stephanie approached me about her children's book about Phoebe and the message that different doesn't make you less.. and asked me to illustrate, I couldn't resist!

We're excited to announce that we are in the final stages of editing the book. We also decided that Phoebe needed a plush toy, and we are in the process of finalising the prototype. Stay tuned for updates, or sign up to the email list: phoebethechkitty.com
