Every pet owner out will agree that each animal is special and unique in their own way. For example, one might think that most cats behave similarly…that is until you live with one. You’ll soon realize that each kitty has it’s own distinct quirks, interesting behaviors, and one-of-a-kind personalities that are hidden inside their little fluffy bodies.
Pumpkin, an adorable ginger cat is no exception. Recently, his family decided to take him along with his brother Moustachio for an outing at the beach for the first time ever, and this trip made them learn a bit more about Pumpkin’s unique personality. Turns out, Pumpkin loves the beach but absolutely hates the strong wind.

“The first day my daughter and I brought him to the beach, the wind picked up and he started to make faces. We had never seen anything like it before. So we took a quick video. The beach pictures all came from a 5 seconds video! He has since been back to the beach and likes it very much,” his owner told Bored Panda.

Turns out, Pumpkin has always loved spending time outdoors and going on different adventures with his family. “Pumpkin was so captivating from the beginning. He is so curious, charming, adventurous and so very intuitive. He loves all other animals and they love him too. He seems to be so connected to all living things,” said the owner.
In the beginning, Pumpkin seemed to enjoy and have quite a bit of fun exploring the beach and running around in the sand with his brother. As the wind started to pick up, it became obvious that the ginger cat wasn’t really into it.

Pumpkin was actually adopted as a rescue kitten when he was very young. “We decided to foster a mom and 4 kittens from a local animal shelter. We instantly fell in love with them all, but we just couldn’t let Pumpkin go. We knew he was special right away. We adopted him, along with his brother Moustachio as they were inseparable,” said the owner.
The photos capturing Pumpkin’s disapproving looks were posted on Facebook and quickly went virals

“Pumpkin has a mild case of Cerebellar Hypoplasia, and it affects a part of the brain which controls his motor skills. It makes him clumsy at times. It affected his coordination as well as depth perception,” the owner explained. But his condition doesn’t stop him from enjoying his life to the absolute fullest.
