Tripod is a lovely boy with a big heart and an even bigger personality just waiting to shine. He was found as a stray and taken to a local vets, but sadly no owner ever came forward for him. From there, he made his way into our care where he’s continuing his treatment and waiting for a fresh start in a loving home.

Tripod is currently lame on one of his forelimbs. He’s receiving pain relief, and we’re monitoring him closely, but there is a chance that he may one day need his leg amputated — which could see him truly living up to his name. If that happens, please don’t let it put you off. Tripod cats adapt incredibly well and go on to live full, happy lives.

As he came to us as a stray, we don’t know how his leg was injured or much about his past. What we do know is that he has so much love to give. He can be shy at first and may take a little time to feel safe, but once he comes out of his shell he’s a confident, friendly boy who enjoys human company and affection.

Tripod will need a home that can provide safe outdoor access, allowing him to explore and enjoy the outdoors safely once he’s settled.

This special boy has been through a lot, but he’s ready to write a new chapter with a family who will see past his injury and love him for the wonderful companion he is❤️
