It's been tough getting video of this little scamp bc she's pretty fast even on three legs and my apartment is only 500 sq feet so not much room to run around! But here she is! I she's come so far in 11 days. Like I've said the day I brought her home, which was day 3, she could barely stand.

Jill is a 9-year-old tuxedo kitty. She was diagnosed with Osteosarcoma in June 2012 on her toe in her right hind leg. Her leg was amputated on 12/12/12 and she completed four rounds of chemo (2 of Carbo, 2 of Doxy) in April 2013.

Look at her go! I love the step you put next to the couch. She's a smart girl for using it!

Jill is looking great!  It is wonderful to see her getting about so well.  Looks like cats may be even more adaptable than dogs.

Here's another one with her hop a bit more pronounced. I realized the first one might be a little misleading because she's quite a bit speedier when she hears the bag of treats. I don't want to mislead any future kitty tripawd parents :)

I am so happy for you. She looks like she is getting along quite well. I like how you have a step to help her up onto to things.

Her little hop is pretty darn adorable! She looks great! Love it that she moves quicker wwhen she hears the treat bag. (Don't we all?)

Jackie, Angel Abby's mom

Abby: Aug 1, 2009 – Jan 10, 2012. Our beautiful rescue pup lived LARGE with osteosarcoma for 15 months – half her way-too-short life. I think our "halflistic" approach (mixing traditional meds + supplements) helped her thrive. (PM me for details. I'm happy to help.) She had lung mets for over a year. They took her from us in the end, but they cannot take her spirit! She will live forever in our hearts. She loved the beach and giving kisses and going to In-N-Out for a Flying Dutchman.
