Aw, poor thing.

I bet people are holding off on asking to adopt her because they don't want to pay for all that surgery.

Furthermore, I want to see a better picture showing all five legs.

They just need to get the cat a pair of Bad Idea jeans.

I would expect nothing less from a woman who wears a fez ;)

how about a video?

What's wrong with a fez? I have a fez. A real fez. From Morocco. Besides, she's wearing a novelty Viking helmet.

it sounds like it might in fact be a spider, and not a cat.

/not a vegetarian, so don't quote me

//hurrah! it's spiderday

Is that a Manx cat, then?

Great. Spend a lot of money removing extra legs and then wait until no one wants a crippled cat so you can spend more money putting the thing to sleep.

Waste of freaking money all around.

i don' t know... it seems to me there would be great advantages with a crippled cat. never having to perform a lipstick test on it's ass to see if it makes contact with the counter is just one i can think of off-hand

If Lord Jesus gave this cat 5 legs, who are we to take off two of them?

I, for one, welcome our new pentametric overlords.

thalidomide new and improved

In the context of this thread, your username made me snicker.

/one way ticket long since assured

Once saw a calf with four legs AND a spare- five total.

Reminds me of the despcription of the Pentagon- that building in Washington with four sides and a spare...

/ducks for cover

That's not a fifth leg, doc...

then wait until no one wants a crippled cat so you can spend more money putting the thing to sleep.

People have 3 legged dogs all the time. The dogs have no problem getting around on 3 legs. I don't see how it would be any different from a dog. Heck, I bet the cat will have no problem finding a home.

but they'll grow back right?

HoneyDog: I bet the cat will have no problem finding a home.

Maybe they need a mouser ?

my friend has a three legged cat named eileen.

I almost adopted a three-legged cat named Aberdeen. He was pretty cool. very friendly, and he walked like this: step-step-hop, step-step-hop. Poor bugger was hit by a car.

Well, a three legged cat is more believable than five, so it's better.

See? Cats are teh evil.

see, this is why we can't have anything nice like evolution anymore. Instead of releasing her into the wild to breed a race of 5 legged super cats, we trim her up and make her someone's house ornament. Sheesh.

What on earth is with all the sad kitty stories this weekend?

Um, two wrongs don't make a right, but three rights make a left?

yeah, got nuthin'
unless you count a case of the creeps
/and this here giant slashy

buckler: Besides, she's wearing a novelty Viking helmet.

He's talking about a previous pic from a Fark party. It's one of many silly hats.

/end threadjack

I pity all the 4 legged cats who get
so much less attention for being
average and homeless.

/only rescue cats here, move along

We had a 3-legged cat in the late 70's named "Three Legs." My parents aren't very imaginative.

/It just disappeared one day without a trace.

HoneyDog: Heck, I bet the cat will have no problem finding a home.

Seconded. I find it amazing how many people on Fark own one-eyed cats.

i have a three-legged cat. They adapt extremely well. Animals don't get all sentimental about their limbs like people do...

DONT TAKE THAT INTO THE SHELTER! TIS NO CAT! ITS
THE THING!
It'll slowly mutate into each of the veterinarians till there's no real people left!

Ow My Balls: ...My parents aren't very imaginative.

Not very imaginative?

The name of the town in this article is "Eighty-Four."

/Obligatory.

Put the cat down.... fix a kid, fark the cat. nuff said.

You've encountered a cat'o'five legs (roll for initiative)

scott-ty: Put the cat down.... fix a kid, fark the cat. nuff said.

Careful how you use the word 'fix'. They're veterinarians, after all.

Interesting math there...

Put the cat down.... fix a kid, fark the cat. nuff said.

I can second the part about fixing kids. I've always said there should be a mandatory spay/neuter program for humans. Early age spay/neuter for humans sounds good to me.

velmacruz: Why couldn't this have happened yesterday, on Caturday???

But everyday is caturday.

One thing my friends and I did when we were younger was we would put a cat in a mailbox and then beat the shiat out of the mailbox with sticks or whatever.

Later when the owner would get his/her mail, they would open the mailbox and a pissed off cat would come leaping out. Usually the cat would just run away, but one time the cat actaully attacked an old man. It was one of the funniest things I've ever seen.

If I had a three legged cat, I would name it Tripod.

What?

/insert caption here.

dwalder: Is that a Manx cat, then?

No, it has a tail.

le mew: HoneyDog: Heck, I bet the cat will have no problem finding a home.

Seconded. I find it amazing how many people on Fark own one-eyed cats.

That's because one-eyed cats are cool.

/Has one, of course.
//Sweetest cat I've ever known, but dumb.

I believe evolution is in progress here, why damper it.

God was inventing a faster mousetrap.

But no, you humans are to much into Brittany, and Ledger, to worry about Tom Cruise and destiny.

Poor kitty. Can a cat get around on 3 feet?
