If anyone worried about age with 3 legged cats our cat has had 3 since the age of 1 and is now 17 years of age but is now getting very slow. But I just want people to know that with 3 legs they still live a long and happy life :)

3 legged cats do just fine. One day when i lived in the country. A 3 legged stray cat adopted me as her new human. I had 2 other cats and they had to defend themselves from her. She could run just as fast as a 4 legged cat and spent just as much time outside as my other 2 cats. The only time she needed my help was when she had an itch and tried to scratch her head with her missing leg.

Just thought I'd add that after surgery, your cat might not be quite 'with it'. Make sure that loud noises are kept to a minimum and your kitty has a place they can be by themselves if everything gets too much for them. We have a large crate with a blanket covering it for our newly 3 legged friend :) (if anyone is worried about their cat adjusting, you'll be surprised how quickly they get used to it! It was our youngest's first day today and, although he has fallen over and bumped into things several times, he's pretty much back to his usual self (only more sleepy and jumpy)!!)

This video and the comments have been very encouraging. My male black shorthair has an low grade sarcoma in his hind right leg. After hearing some traumatic options (traumatic for both the treatment and the cost) of radiation, I am deciding on amputation for the most effectively curative option. the good news the sarcoma is contained, low grade, and non metastatic. trying to come to this decision has been so difficult but prospects are so good. thank you for this!

Thank you for your video. I have a tripod male cat named smokey i have had for 6 wonderful years. 4 years ago he had a tumor growing on his left back leg. It got to be the size between a golf ball and soft ball. The vet told me either put him down or let the vet amputate the whole leg. I couldnt put my little buddy down he was full of life and has a long life ahead of him. So my husband and I decided to have smokeys back leg amputated. It took a couple months for our cat to go back to normal. Now hes back to his happy self and runs and jumps just like he used to. In fact he actually now can stand on his one back leg every to get my attention every once in a while. I even made a step ladder out of two very sturdy cardboard boxes full of stuff for him to be able to jump on the bed better I hope anyone who sees this video who is new to tripods or anyone with a tripod cat will watch this video.

This video is so adorable! He's so energetic for being a tripod. My three legged friend Graham was just a barn kitten before he decided to climb a little too high up in a tree! He totally biffed it, shattering his femur and splitting open his lip. He got his right back leg amputated, and even the day after his surgery he was running around and wanted nothing more than to get that stupid cone off his head. Now he's the most loving cat we've ever had. Watching him grow up and get around is still one of the most hilarious and touching things I've ever experienced.

My 13 year old fur baby just had her front left paw & shoulder blade amputated on May 28th. I wasn’t prepared for it to include the shoulder blade and it was extremely challenging to keep her from trying to lick her staples. They were removed yesterday and she is progressing. I’m just trying to keep her from jumping until she heals a little more. Seeing this video was wonderful, thank you for posting it!! I don’t think she’ll every be quite that active but who knows. I’m sure she must of been in some pain with almost a golf ball size tumor a little below her elbow joint. She never limped however but she would hold that paw up when sitting. It was a very aggressive tumor and I’m praying that she never has another one. Thanks again, you’ve lifted my spirits with hope!!

Today is her first day outside and I've watched her enjoy being in the yard but have no idea when she will feel safe enough to come back inside..I.e., am I responsible for her torture? Who knows how she sees it. Leaving food and water out tonight and waiting for her to forget about her imprisonment and for us to be friends again.

I have a tripawd cat called Luna (aka Lunacita Piranha or just Lunatic). She was found under the bonnet of a neighbour's car and one leg was deformed. She had to have it removed because she didn't have sensation in it and it was dragging on the ground and getting infected. I worried about how she would cope but she's bouncing around the house really well and her big cat sister loves her. Loved your video.

Our kitty Birdie lacks one hind leg but boy is he fast! The only struggle he has from time to time is balance, but he compensates well. One thing we have learned to do for him is to scratch the side of his head that he can't get to because that leg is missing. Your kitty will like that too. Another kitty is Chester, and though he has all his legs, his hind legs are missing some of the muscles he needs to make them operate properly, so they tend to splay outward often, especially on slippery surfaces. We have vinyl floors but we make sure there are throw carpets and runners in most areas to minimize the sliding around. He's honestly more like a dog than a cat - seeks company and hovers around often when we are walking around the house. Cats with disabilities are so rewarding to have and love.

Our poor baby came home last night after a hunter shot him. We live out in the country and I've always worried about some bored hunter coming across him. The bullet shattered his elbow and broke his arm. Amputation is our only option at this point. And we were contemplating what kind of life he would have missing a front leg. I just hated to be so cruel just to keep him alive for our sakes. But after seeing this cat so happy and healthy with no limitations it's given our family, especially our kids, hope for his future. He's the best cat and we love him. He's one of our kids. And he's only 2. He still has many years ahead!

My little Thunder has no problem at all getting around. When we got her, my mom thought she wouldn't be able to get on the counters, and how wrong she was. The little monster gets on the counters, on my bunk bed, has accidentally fallen off the bunk bed by saying on a pillow that was hanging half way off, and STARTS every single cat problem in the house. She's missing a back leg and has her other leg and tail broken. It isn't really surprising, though, our house flooded recently so we were all at my grandparents' house. The two older 4 legged ones stayed in an empty cabinet for the first few days, and the 3 legged brat was exploring the entire place. It's not surprising at all how her legs would have gotten broken.

helmut edlmayer So sorry! I know it can be so hard when first getting use to the idea. I hope your kitty is doing better now. Mine started thriving after we amputated her sick leg. She is super fast on her 3 legs! :)

My cat was recently hit by a speeding car. It crushed his pelvis and destroyed his leg. He's getting his leg amputated and I hope he survives. I'm watching all these videos to see how living with a tripod might be. Hopefully he can adjust and live the rest of his life as a happy, normal kitty

Having our 4 year old Cat's front leg is pretty devastating for us and we think it's a freak accident of falling from 3red floor, which could be avoided. Then thankfully we found him alive the next day and due to his relocated and fractured limb, amputation is the best the vet suggests other than having a non functional limb. Thanks for sharing this video. Hope he can be as he was before..fun, active and comfortable in his skin😔

My kitten, Eli, has a broken back leg, it’s broken in two places and had already started to heal when we found her. The vets said she’d have to be 4 to 5 months before she could get surgery. She’s nearing 4 months now and I can’t wait until she can go into surgery, because her leg is a hindrance to her, it drags on the floor and gets sores, it gets stuck when she tries to jump over things and it must be painful. My grandmother (from my dad’s side) doesn’t like her because of her leg, as much as i try to tell her that ‘what if dad lost his leg, would you hate him for it? No, so why do you hate her for it’ and i think she’s catching on.

We adopted a 3 leg cat just a month ago. He was found on the street with a bad injury, and we could't save his leg =( At that time this video actually helped me and my wife realize that all should be fine, so we became more confident of adopting him. Now we have Nelson in our family)) check out our cats' Instagram cats_london_and_nelson

Thank you for this video. My cat is with the vet now, they have to amputate his left front leg. I'm so worried that he will not like his life without a leg. So good to see how the cat plays, and still is happy. I'm very curious to see what my cat will do....

Cool video! Actually performing a forelimb amputation on a kitty tomorrow due to a terrible radial/ulnar fracture. I’ll be sure to get the owners to check this video out!

We adopted a tri-pod Maine Coon fur ball just over a month ago, and we're still setting up the house to suit him. Without his right front leg, he's pretty agile, and it seems like his worst problems are sometimes not remembering that he's only got 3 legs, and a bit of flightyness from whatever terrible trauma led to the loss of said leg. We'll probably never know what that was. The SPCA found him with 3 legs, and no identity.
