Kitten CKS

Crazy Kitten Syndrome

Are the symptoms of Crazy Kitten Syndrome (CKS) happening in your home? Read on to find out.

Perhaps I worry too much as a parent, not all together uncommon for those of us with CKS kittens. Dr. Mebalz, however, does console me with his belief that there is hope for the future.

"CKS is so prevalent we are not sure what exactly to do. Our early findings show symptoms seem to lessen after about 10 to 12 months for many CKS kittens," he said. "Of course, there are always relapses and flare-ups. In the meantime I recommend all family members get involved with support groups like KA Kittens Anonymous. Remember, the first step is always admit you are powerless."

Yes, so true. Powerless over a crazed and spastic kitten, I readily admit. For now, I'll learn to adapt and live with CKS. Time is on my side ... and wearing earmuffs on the couch isn't so bad.

WOW! I just adopted two 10 week old kittens. Thank God I found out about this and now know what to watch for. I just hope that they never develop a vaccine for it.

Very Funny Story-an d I might add that I am a cat lover for my whole life-I have not ever had a kitten that didn't have Crazy Kitten Syndrome!! They are lovable, funny, sometimes irritating just a little, when one wants to sleep and ones toes are the target of the attack...but oh well, this is part of being a lover of felines!
