Mija

3-legged affectionate cat up for rehoming or long term stay

Mija is my miracle cat. Her front leg was amputated when she was young as she was run over by a cart. I adopted her when she was just a few weeks old. Don't let her missing leg fool you, shes a very active cat and often doesn't know she's missing a leg being able to jump onto counters.
