Emmy - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in San Francisco, California

Meet Emmy, a beautiful two-year-old calico with three legs, two mesmerizing green eyes and a heart that seems to have absolutely no limits. This extraordinary girl has already faced more than her fair share of challenges, but you would never know it from the love she has to give. Emmy arrived at San Francisco Animal Care & Control needing medical treatment for a serious leg injury and a hernia. Her journey ultimately included surgery to amputate her injured leg and repair the hernia. Through it all, her sweet spirit has remained wonderfully intact. She may have lost a leg, but she certainly hasn’t lost her enthusiasm for life!

Emmy is still learning to navigate the world as a tripod, but she’s already proving that three legs are more than enough for a life filled with love and adventure. She’ll greet you at the door, happily climb into your lap and soak up affection like it’s her full-time job. And don’t let her recent surgery fool you. This girl is playful, active and clearly has no intention of letting a missing leg define what she can accomplish. Her resilience is inspiring, but her affectionate personality is what will truly steal your heart.

Now Emmy is ready for the happy ending she so richly deserves. She’s looking for a loving indoor home where she can continue building confidence, enjoy plenty of enrichment and receive all the affection she’s so eager to return. Emmy doesn’t need someone to feel sorry for her. She needs someone to fall completely in love with her. And once you meet this remarkable little lady, we suspect that won’t be difficult at all.
