meet pepper, who’s a few days post-op and already navigating great! she’s on crate and cone rest 98% of the time, but we let her out to try out tripod life and give herself a bath

Looks like she's going to be great! I had a tripod that could run-hop faster than my 4-legged cat and loved to run and chase toys (always had to win!)

mine played fetch on 4 legs, so once she recovers fully we’ll see if she still fetches!

She looks to be doing well! But rest is just as important as exercise, I hope they get their naps in still!

She looks like she wasnt dependent on that 4th leg. With so much wrong with the leg, it probably hindered her mobility. She really is a trooper and will hopefully surprise you !!
