About Trixie
🏡🐱Seeking Forever Home🐱🏡
🐈 Cats- Yes please! Trixie must go to a home with a friendly resident cat or she would love to be adopted with one of her siblings

Trixie may only have three legs, but that certainly hasn't slowed her down! This cheeky, curious little girl has a zest for life and a personality that shines through every day.
Like her sister Peggy, Trixie hasn't had the easiest start to life. She was found in a barn with her mum and siblings, and sadly, the vets believe a hair may have become wrapped tightly around one of her legs, cutting off circulation and causing significant blood loss. Unfortunately, the damage was too severe, and her leg was lost. But Trixie hasn't let that hold her back one bit!
She's playful, independent and full of mischief. Often the first to pounce on and wrestle with her siblings, she loves a good play session, whether that's chasing toy mice, batting around a cat ball or getting involved in a bit of friendly sibling wrestling.
Trixie is also a very curious little soul who loves being around people. She'll happily run up to investigate you, sniff your hands and clothes, and see what you're up to. However, while she's confident enough to approach, she's not quite comfortable with being touched or picked up just yet, but she's making lovely progress with each passing day.
Trixie will need someone who understands that building trust takes time and is happy to let her set the pace. Give her the space to explore, approach and warm up to you in her own time, and you'll get to see more and more of her lovely personality emerge. She may prefer to sit nearby rather than curl up in your arms, but being close to you is certainly something she enjoys.
One thing that will definitely get Trixie's attention is food! She's very food motivated and has the sweetest little squeak. The moment she spots you approaching with her meal, she'll let you know she's there and come running!
Trixie is looking for a patient, understanding home that will embrace her just as she is, celebrate her progress and allow her confidence to grow at her own pace. She might be missing a leg, but she's certainly not missing any personality, curiosity or love for life!
As Trixie is thriving so well in her foster home around other cats, Trixie must go to a home with a friendly resident cat or she would love nothing more than to be adopted with one of her siblings, if you are interested in adopting one of Trixie's siblings, check out the links to their profiles below.
