CRAP! Three Legged cat.

[jennielynn1970]

good luck!!! Most tripods adapt as well as any 4 legger. Don't be surprised by what it is able to do.

Many thanks for you being able to take him/her in to your home! Your softer side is showing, better hide it, lol!!

Its a him, dosent have dog issues, may have litterbox issues. Im more worried about Erp issues, she is not a fan of other cats.

I guess Ill try and post pics of tripod this evening.

I may name him Crap, I doubt it but I may Im still favoring Tripod.

Jenn my softer side should be clear, with Erp, Bluedawg and Verde, it was here or the pound.

Crap! Im gonna have to leave Tripod for 3 or 4 nights next week. Better here then the pound I hope.

I am so glad that the kitty isnt going to the pound!

I understand that feeling (to save or not), that is how I ended up with 17 cats I never went looking for ANY cat, they just keep finding me in desperate, most of the time life threatening, condition.
I can never say no, and when I DO say no, I say it as I am loading up the cat into a carrier, LOL

Do you think that the dogs will be ok with another cat? Any aggression?

Anyways, thanks for saving him! And I dont like the name tripod Sorry

How fantastic!! My Snoopy is a 3-legged cat too!! And.... she can run faster and climb higher than her 3 sisters !!

I wouldn't call her "tripod" though...

Tripods are disfigured, not disabled. Tripod and Lefty say you're more than welcome to use their names.

This is wonderful news, blue! When I was going to adopt the three-legged cat last month, I talked to my vet about any issues that he might have and he told me that there would be none. I also had a cat, my RB Peeka, who really didn't like other cats either until I brought Creamsicle, my CH baby, into the family. It's as though Peeka realized that Creamsicle was different and she left her alone and was even nice to her, so maybe Erp will react the same way. One thing though, please don't name the kitty Crap. I believe that animals, like people, live up to their names. Tripod is a cool name, though. Bless you for fostering and/or adopting this kitty. He's your Christmas miracle!

Friends I had growing up nicknamed their 3 legged kitty Speedbump.

Congrats on your new kitty!

The girl cats can be quite the divas, lol. Mine are, that's for sure. High maintenance. I'll take male cats any day!

Eh, we know you're actually a softie!! I'm just teasing!


I agree with the "no crap" name. Another color would be cool, or see what kind of sounds this one makes, like you said Erp makes sounds like "erp". Give him a name to make him feel good about himself!

Yep, I always wait to name my cats. I see how they behave, what sounds they make, etc. and I take it from there.

Any news of the kitty??

Sorry for the late reply I had no interweb last night.

The guy's wife found a home that was better suited for the 3 legged kitty, a home that dosent have a cat hating cat in it. They did call and ask if I still wanted the cat, the other home sounded like a better fit for him so thats where he is.

I was excited about getting another cat but worried about Erps reaction, she really does hate other cats. Erp is no longer welcome at the place I board my dogs because of it.

[jennielynn1970]

My one foster cat, Furbee, hates other cats too. She basically sleeps all by herself, eats by herself, and hisses, spits and flips out on everyone else. She's a sweet cat, but just doesn't like other kitties. Unfortunately, it was either here at my place with 7 other cats, or the shelter with 60 other cats. She just shut down at the shelter, so I took her from there.

Glad the cat you were going to take is still getting a home! Best wishes for it's happiness there!
