Say hello to Lego! This gorgeous Tripawd girl is available for adoption in Sioux Falls, SD via All Cats Rescue. As you can see, she is a DLH. She appears to be a very dark tortie -- bordering on all black. Just beautiful. She came to the rescue in November 2021 with a mutilated hind leg. The vet guessed that she was hit by a car or caught in a trap. Estimated to be six-months old at the time (born 5/2021). Lego's foster mom says that she is a very sweet girl who is a little shy, but will let you pick her up and hold her. She gets around well and can even climb the cat tree and other furniture. She likes to have her own space and will spend most of her time sleeping there. She is good with other cats and older kids but does not like dogs. She is spayed and is current on her vaccinations.
All Cats Rescue normally adopts only to people in Sioux Falls and the surrounding tri-state area, but it is quite possible that they would be open to an individual or family outside of the area with Tripawd experience and/or with a really big heart for these sweet babies! Apply to adopt at https://www.all.....pplication!

Hi Sally!! For sure -- so glad to be able to share her info -- would love to see her go to a Tripawd enthusiast. 🙂
Posting her hurts my heart a little, though; when she came to the rescue, we were already in the midst of adopting another kitty (yes...I know...another), but I really felt pulled in her direction. Sweet Jonesy just left too much of a void in our family, and when a super-cuddly orange boy became available, we just couldn't resist. There will never be another Jones, but the new guy has helped us to do a good bit of healing, so it's all good.
I need to catch up on your pups!

Nope, never will be another Jonsey. Jonesy knows his place in your heart is securely nestled there furever. He also knows his legacy here will inspire every new tripawd kitty member.😎
And we need to jear more about "orange boy"😉

Melissa I just had a chance to see how gorgeous Lego is! Thank you for sharing and trying to make sure she gets a good home. We will get the word out about her.
Congrats on the new kitty! I'm also waiting to hear more about who Lego sent your way to help your hearts heal. Feel free to update in Tripawds Alumni when you're able. What a lucky boy!

Hey, so I just came back to advise that Lego has been adopted. Yayyy! I can't see where the post topic can be edited -- if I am missing something, let me know, or feel free to edit!
I will definitely head over to the alumni forum and post about our new guy. I have yet to post a proper tribute to Jonesy, so should do that, too. I need more hours in the day! Thanks as always for the sweet replies. I really appreciate you guys, and coming here brings back the feelings of connection I had to my sweet tripawd boy. 🥰
