Tales of Sheba, the three-legged kitty

Isn't she amazing? And cute. She even talks (when she needs attention). *** Sheba passed away June 10, 2015. She was seventeen and a half years old. She had a wonderful life, was loved by everyone who knew her, and gave so much love to all who entered her world. Everyone marveled at how she got along as good as any cat, even though she was missing a leg. She never complained, and was able to comfort countless humans just by snuggling with them and sharing her happy kitty vibes. Sheba will never be forgotten! ***
