Meet Chilli. My girlfriend and I were walking around a pet store and I saw this girl who looked a little rough so I asked about her. Apparently she was brougt there by her original owner for the store to re-home, then the 2nd owner had her for 2 weeks and brought her back. I felt really bad for her to have to go through this, so we went back a few days later and took her home.

I was told that she is 6 months old (I think she is older based on her size).

She is missing her left rear leg.

This is her good side, but she must have been chewing her fur. I've had her for 1 week and haven't seen her mess with it.

So probably you didnt get the story on why she was missing her leg if two diffrent homes
 
Poor thing. She is a lovely little lady. I'm glad to see she has found her forever home. :hug2:
 
happy you took her in, certainly she deserves a loving home after her first two.

she is lovely
Thank you

Unfortunately No. I wish I could ask the first owner a couple things about her... Like a more precise age, how leg was broken, Dr. who did amputation, etc. But I guess I'll never know.
 
She is such a cutie! The first picture looks like she's nibbling on the door stopper lol.
 
How is her mobility with -1 leg?

Overall, pretty good. She's slow when she runs I guess Porque she is trying to use her little nub! Maybe she's still learning to use just one leg instead of 2? IDK..

I'm just glad she's got a permanent home now.
:)
