One of the best things about cats is how strong they are. Mentally and physically. Cats purrsevere. They let nothing stop them from living their lives to the fullest. Cats that only have three legs will run around as if nothing is different between them and other cats. Deaf cats will scream their heads off for attention just like any other cat. Cats that are born a little different - sick or deformed in some way - will fight for their lives and find pawsome cat parents to adopt them. 

And the cat in this story - a cat who was run over by a car and had her leg crushed… she might be the fiercest of them all, because now, five years later, she growls at every car that drives by her favorite window, and we have no doubt that if she ever got out, she would pick a fight with each and every one of them and win.

    Claire @clairestrickett 5 months into her current incarnation, a car ran over Peggy's back right leg and crushed it beyond repair. 5 and a half years later, her favourite pastime is to sit atop the sofa and growl at every single car that passes. 10:13 PM ⚫ Jul 27, 2024 · 1M Views • > 199 12.9K 71K ☐ 1.3K 1

    Peggy is vengeful, and she is not afraid to express it, and we think we are in love with it. Ugh, one of the things we love the most about cats is how fierce they are. Like- we have no doubt in our mind that if the window was open and Peggy could go outside, she would try to fight every car that drove by.

    What an absolute legend. And she knows that she is too. We hope that this adorable creature gets to live many, many more long and accident-less years, growling at as many cars as her little heart desires.

    Helenthecurlyhead @meyne_helen ... Lost our Boris to a car.Prior to him, we had a rescued lad who had a chewed up ear and a leg stump. He wasn't fazed by this "disability", he fought like a crazy lad. Always down at the vet with a cat bite. He couldn't walk both ways over a windowsill, but he was 19+ when he died. 6:24 PM Jul 28, 2024 4,465 Views

    Jimothée Jalamet @Tabletop_James My Domino did the same thing. She was a year older than me, lost her leg just before I was born. Only time she left the house after was to hiss at the cars in the driveway and go back in. 6:20 PM ⚫ Jul 28, 2024 316 Views

    Alex @AlexJournal2019 If her back legs dont work. Is she able to move around? I have seen people make little carts and attach them to dogs, so the dog could walk with just the front legs. Maybe you could have a similar solution for the cat if needed. 9:48 PM ⚫ Jul 28, 2024 782 Views

    Claire @clairestrickett She has one back leg which is "the strongest leg we've ever had to deal with" according to the vet team who had to hold her down to give her her vaccinations! But these contraptions are amazing for animals who need them 9:53 PM Jul 28, 2024 709 Views
