I adopted a special needs cat

Jaeger and I have a couple of friends who have a cat like that, who spazzes out and can't walk right because part of his brain was underdeveloped or something. They call him Monkey, and he's cool. Though he can freak you out sometimes when he comes flying through the air like a whirling dervish of death to jump up in your lap.

Yeah, this as yet unamed cat can barely walk at all, but when the wife turned on the vacuum when he was in the litter box it almost impossible to describe the full bore spastic modern dance freakout he went through.

It's kind of perfect for my life.

The best part is when he's just laying there, he's this beutiful dignified all black cat, the very picture of grace. And then there's two modes. He's either a very slow moving ancient drunk guy who falls down every other step, or just this writhing convulsing spitting ball of freakout.

name him Otis...or since he's a little on the spastic side, maybe Ernest T.
