We have a "special needs" kit also. Badger was abandoned by her mama (a very young first time mama). When she removed her from the rest of the litter we think she was accidentaly a bit rough and gave her a partial lobotomy. Badger has some coordination problems and can't follow moving objects to the right. We have to make sure she doesn't have to walk on slick floors as her right foot will slide out from under her. She also seems to have I guess a sensory overload when she gets petted. Instead of enjoying it she will bite and smack at the hand that is trying to pet her, purring madly up a storm. She wants the affection but doesn't appear to understand how to react to it normally.

We love her dearly in spite of her problems and just make allowences for them.
