Cassiesmom, yep, he moves the same on the floor! Watching him from behind, he seems to be a bit bowlegged in the back. It gives him character!

I have 4 CH kitties and they vary greatly in their ability to walk. One (Tinkie) has very mild CH and you can only really tell when she runs or gets excited. Then she looks like a Tennessee Walking Horse. So it is possible that the Admiral might have a mild case of CH. It makes absolutely no difference in her abilities except when she is jumping up on something (like a sofa).

But he sure is cute!!!!

We have a vet appointment in a few minutes to have a look at Admiral's gait, so naturally he's quite steady this morning.

We are back from the vet, and the concensus is that there is something wrong with his hips and/or pelvis. He's being neutered on the 21st, so he will be x-rayed at that time to determine if he needs surgery to correct the problem or if he is just going to have a funny gait forever. Paws crossed that it's an easy fix, or at least not a painful condition!
