La Nina is going to have her stitches out in the morning so a few purrs that the wound has healed properly would be much appreciated.

Ahhhh, Steve. I see you have a Little Bit, also. I hope that he/she
gives you as much pleasure and love as my Little Bit does me. Because of the kidney disease she was born with she was so small at the age of 9-10 weeks old that she fit in my cupped hands and I have very small hands !!!! -- Purrs & Hugs, BlueBird & Little Bit To E-Mail direct remove the hutch "Steve Touchstone" wrote in message ...

I've never known such a talkative kitten, she seems to have an opinion on everything and doesn't mind sharing it with everyone :-) Several years ago our local Wildbird store had a cat with only two legs. It was amzing how she adapted. She loved all the attention she got from customers. Purrs for La Nina to heal quickly. CATherine You're right, it's amazing how well they do. My great aunt had a kitten that lost a leg. You'd never have known when it was young, though. It was always running and playing so hard that you couldn't count the legs. In its teens it developed arthritis in its one front leg, so it short of hitched its way along, but it was always there to great visitors and get its expected attention. I've been trying all evening to remember it's name, but it won't come to me. It didn't come along until after I joined the Army, so I only saw it a few times over the years, while home on leave. If I have my facts straight, it lived to be about twenty, and went to the RB three or four years ago. -- Steve Touchstone, faithful servant of Sammy, Little Bit and Rocky [remove Junk for email] Home Page: http://www.sirinet.net/~stouchst/index.html Cat Pix: http://www.sirinet.net/~stouchst/animals.html |

Helen, I'll add my experiences to yours as far as cats with less than 4
legs. My Lady Bug, who went to a new home a few months back because of my allergies to her long fur, had only three legs. When she was given to me by my vet, she had been in a accident. She was hit by a car and taken to my vet by a good Samaritan. She almost lost her life, but made it thanks to a very good and loving vet. She did lose her front left shoulder and leg though. she was approximately two at the time. The people who 'owned' her didn't want her because she was 'injured' and told vets to just put her to sleep. What a waste of a beautiful cat and an extremely fortunate slave that would have been !!!!!!!!!!!! She had her three legs up until the time of the accident, but came out of the surgery for from being groggy without missing a beat. You'd never have known she was missing a leg. She played, ran around the house, ripped over furniture while playing and jumped just like any other cat. In fact, when playing with her favorite toy (the piece of denim attached to a flexible wand by a special kind of thread ) she would jump higher than any cat I've ever seen jump. And that's no joke. I've had several people mention it when watching her play with that toy. So here is wishing LaNina lots of jumping in her future !!!!!!!!! -- Purrs & Hugs, BlueBird & Little Bit To E-Mail direct remove the hutch "dirtylitterboxofferingstospammers" wrote in message ...

Yep, my Little Bit is a joy, and is my cuddle kitty. She was about 8 pounds when she showed up and announced that she was moving in, and very pregnant - had her kittens in the bedroom closet a week or so after moving in closet. She's not so little nowadays at around 10 pounds, borderline on what TED tells me her max weight should be before being put on a diet. -- Steve Touchstone, faithful servant of Sammy, Little Bit and Rocky [remove Junk for email] Home Page: http://www.sirinet.net/~stouchst/index.html Cat Pix: http://www.sirinet.net/~stouchst/animals.html |
