I just started a new part time job to supplement my income until my pet sitting business picks up and can pay the bills. I work at the local animal emergency clinic. There is currently a resident stray cat who is technically a Tripawd! He has half of one of his rear legs, but they call him Jack Sparrow since he’s kind of a pirate-y peg leg kitty! I was talking to one of my new coworkers about Jack Sparrow and how he is clearly not held back by his missing limb (he’s a cage climber), and I brought up Steve and the Tripawds community. Turned out my coworker has a Tripawd too! I told her about the website and Facebook page, then shared Steve’s story. Hopefully, she’ll be joining us!
Someone’s ears must have been burning. Steve woke up and climbed into my lap!!
The great thing about this job is that one of my pets gets free emergency care, and a second pet gets half off emergency care. I picked Steve to get the free emergency care since she seems to be the most accident/emergency prone. Of course, now that she (and Yorrick) is signed up, Saxon and Spyder are going to block or obstruct!! (knock on wood!!!!)
I entered Steve into a Cutest Pets Calendar contest a few months ago. She didn’t get enough votes to win a month, but because she was entered, she still gets to appear! Her picture appears in the collage for May! A certain kitty/doggy mother has a birthday in May! Hmmm…I wonder who?
STEVE!! You are a WINNER here in Tripawd Land! We are sooooo proud of you sweet girl!!!
Glad your momma is getting some great benefits for you and your lack from where she is working. Also a great place to spread the word about her pet sitting business!!!
You’re doing a splendid job of representing tripawds! YAAAAAAAAAY STEVE…AND MOM!!!!
Smiles going on over here!

Congrats on the new job, what a cool gig. Thanks for spreading the word about the community.
