We have had two Steelcase MO2295 office chairs and multiple long-lived
cats in the house for more than 20 years.

One day two weeks ago when we were gone, our 1.5 year old male cat got
a hind foot caught between a chair back and the the arm rest and
effectively ripped his hind leg off. We had to have him put down.

To protect our other cat and future cats, we removed the arms from the
chairs by removing the bolts that held the arms on the chair.

this is trolling

i don't think a cat would rip his own leg off
in this case, the cat knew the slaves would home soon enough
it's not like something was fixing to eat the cat

but I did know an old cow that pulled her tail off..
she got it caught in a fence or grapevine..
but it was just an ugly bloody stump that wouldn't heal
they always said her milk was nasty - "don't milk her"
