" The very next time that you might feel complaining about your lot in life or moan about not being left with a leg to stand on, take heart from Caffrey the Grey Persian. Until the age of three, like all cats, Caffrey liked climbing trees and chasing all manner of moving objects. At the age of three years, tragedy struck the cat and after being run over by a car, Caffrey lost one of his hind legs and damaged one of his front legs on the same side of his body. He coped for the next ten years after having had a series of operations to improve the damaged leg, but towards the final quarter of 2012, a malignant growth in his repaired front leg appeared. His owner,Sue Greaves, aged 58 years, couldn't bear to put him down or put him through painful chemotherapy with no guarantee of success, so she pleaded to have his leg amputed, leaving Caffrey with only two legs; each on the same side of his body. Despite all the odds against ever being able to walk again, Caffrey did just that! Today, he can take a bow and walk and run around the garden in his own way. What an inspiration to anyone lacking courage in the face of adversity. See the video of Caffrey in action at www.dailymail.co.uk/caffreycat " William Forde:
