Oh NO, PLEASE don't do that!

I would recommend you check into having her whole leg removed. It will make for a much easier life for her!
How could she ever, ever, EVER trust again if now (in a loving, furrever home) her beloved new mommy had her put to sleep, only to wake up with NO leg at all, putting her through another mutilation? It would be different if illness necessitated such drastic treatment but that doesn't sound like it is the case at all.
I hope the monster who cut off her foot does not have any other show cats ... or any pets or any children to take out this vile destructive temper on. It would be nice to think such a person would be in jail but I doubt that is the case. I also hope all cat clubs have banned her from participation in ANY show event, ever - and that does sound like an achievable goal.
Hi from Bonnie, Buttons and Lucy Loo
What a shock it was to read little Pixy's story. I have never been a fan of Cat or Dog shows and feel some of the people that belong to these clubs are often fanatics that live their lives through their animals. Sadly in this instance the perpetrator of this horrible deed was most likely mentally ill, however that does not excuse the act. :(
