Hi everyone -
Billy the tripawd is looking for a forever home! This sweet guy's adoption fee has been paid for already by a generous donor, so if you or anyone you know is looking for someone to love, definitely come meet him! He's one of a kind!
Billy's Bio: Meow, I'm Billy! I'm a medium-sized, 4-year-old, neutered male cat with a short, black and white coat. You may have noticed that I am a tripawd and only have three legs. I have adjusted nicely and am able to keep up with the four-legged guys for the most part! I will need to be an indoor-only kitty to keep me safe from predators. I am a SUPER sweet gentleman who loves to get lots of head and neck scratches. I am very friendly and outgoing, and I don't mind being picked up and held. You will get a kick out of my playing with my little cat nip sock - I just can't get enough of those! I get along great with other kitties - I'll even snuggle with them in the bed. I met a tiny puppy the other day and was very interested in him, so maybe I'd like doggies, too! Ask for Billy, ID# A514380.

I agree, he is purrrrfect. I can see that he'll fit into any home without any problem. Hope he gets scooped up quickly.

I belong to an FB cat group that has a significant number of SF and Bay Area members. I will share there.

On October 27, 2016, nearly 6 months after amputation, and 18 months since his cancer likely started, we lost Pofi to a recurrence of Soft Tissue Sarcoma in his spine quite suddenly. His canine sister also succumbed to cancer on March 1, 2019 - we lavished her with our love in the interim, but life was never quite the same without her only real canine friend. Cliff kitty had to leave us, too, suddenly, in August 2019. Lucia kitty grieved all these losses, but helped us welcome two new Lurchers into our home and our lives, Shae and Barley.
I find myself thinking that if I got one tripaws of each quarter I would have an interesting study of animals and their skills!
