Tripawds member Storm had a great idea to start a dictionary of all the three-legged plays on words hopping around these forums.
So...here it is! Just reply to add your three cents. 
Tripawd - A three legged dog (or cat I suppose), either from birth or amputation.
Ampuversary - The anniversary of a tripawd's amputation.
Hoppy - As in happy to bounce around enjoying life.
Hoppy Ampuversary - A very happy anniversary indeed.
Pawrents - The skin parents of any furry companion.
Inspawrational - As all Tripawds are, inspirational reminders to love life no matter the circumstances.
Pawty - A get together of furry friends.
Tripawd Pawty - The best kind.

Everyone thought Maggie was so small yesterday at the pawty we had- I guess she is a pawtite tripawd.

I vote for pawteet. Otherwise it sounds too much like apawtite – which we hope is always healthy for our cancer heroes.
