Tripawd

[Barbara]

Tripawd, you for sure are a very special kitty with an orange furry guardian angel who took well care of you.Some years ago I have been in old Orchard Beach-this gives me the impression I know where you come from. I am so glad it all worked out-you were rescued after your accident and got veterinary care. The lady who worked at Starbucks put your poster at the board -and your new purrson who brought her mom to the airport to just see this poster-it was all meant to be.
Enjoy your day -get some training dor the cat-paralympics and some extra celebration treats, sweet girl

Good morning everyone! I'm the proud father of Tripawd, and I wanted say how happy and honored I am that Tripawd was chosen as today's Cat of the Day.

As mentioned in her story, Tripawd lives with Mr. Mackee, who was Cat of the Day on June 27, 2003. You can read about him here: http://catoftheday.com/archive/2003/June/27.html

The story also mentioned Feema, who you can read about here: http://PetoftheDay.com/talk/showthre...Himalayan-girl

I just got up and I need to get some coffee before I write anything more, otherwise whatever I write won't be very coherent. But thanks for the wonderful comments you've posted! I'll be uploading more pictures of Tripawd later today as well. Despite her disability, she is one FAST cat and that makes it pretty difficult to take pictures of her. Usually I have to wait until she's asleep.

Hi Tripawd and hi Dad!!

Tripawd you are such a gorgeous kitty and such a survivor I love your spirit. And Dad, thank you so much for giving this lovely lady the life she deserves - wish there were more people like you in our world.

I'll look forward to seeing more pics and lots of stories, I'm sure.

Happy COTD Tripawd - please get good and spoiled today sweetie.

It's heartbreaking to hear of any animal's illness or injury, but the happy ending to Tripawd's story makes me smile. It is wonderful to know that not every "animal control" officer has euthanasia in mind as the automatic solution to deal with sick or hurt cats or dogs. I am also given hope by Tripawd's adoption by an obviously caring and patient human.

Oh Tripawd, what an absolutely lovely girl you are!

I'm sorry for the pain you went through, but now you have found the perfect dad who knows how to care for you. Have fun and celebrate the honor of being our Cat of the Day. You gotta demand extra treats and toys now.

When I saw your picture, you reminded me so much of my recently departed Fister. He lived to be almost 17 years old. I hope you will have a long happy and healthy life!

I hope we will hear more about you and see the pictures to go with the stories.
