Hi
This is my first posting so please allow me to introduce myself. My
name is Jasmine Nam and I am 5 weeks old, as you can see from my
profile I seem to have lost my back leg. I can't remember where is
went, or indeed if I was even born with one, but I do know that before
I came to live with my new owner I was kept in the top drawer of a
filing cabinet and fed on rabbit food.
Although by rights I should still be with my mummy, as i wasn't being
looked after very well and 2 of my sisters had already died, my new
owners took me in and I am now a lot better and have put on lots of
weight. I am now very loved and have a few toys, and best of all I
don't have to live in a filing cabinet drawer any more.
Anyway, back to the reson for this post. As you can see I have no
foot, and although I can get around in a fashion, I till find it quite
hard and keep falling over. As I know have lots of strength, I want to
play with my toys and jump on things and attack them, but find it hard
with only one back foot. So I am asking if there are any budding
inventor types/vets etc. that may be able to suggest/invent a new foot
for me, I have had my new owner take a picture of my stump to see if
that helps.
I would appreciate any comments/suggestions as I have had a pretty
crappy start to life so far, and just want to chance to be able to play
and pretend to kill things like any other kitten. I will keep you up
to date on my progress and any help I receive.
Peace & love Jasmine x x x x

I wouldn't bother. A number of years ago I had a cat with three
legs (the fourth one apparently fell off shortly after birth.)
He got around just fine with those three legs. He went on to
live a full, healthy life. It was a minor impedement but
he dealt with it.
I would point out the cat has not had a crappy life. He has a
home now, unlike the millions who are in shelters, homeless
and will be put to death very soon.
In the meantime i'd have a vet look at the foot but there is little
they can do. You want to avoid infection, further damage to the foot,
but beyond that there isn't much you can do.
