| Babygirl the cat was born with five legs. |
When Babygirl the cat was found wandering the streets of Canonsburg, Penn., her rescuers were struck by her unusual appearance — Babygirl has five legs. She was brought to the Washington Area Humane Society and will soon undergo surgery to remove her extra limb and her crippled front left leg, The Associated Press reports.
Though she will be left with three legs, Babygirl’s quality of life should improve, according to shelter staff. The cat will live at the shelter until she is adopted by a new family.
Some people already have inquired about adopting Babygirl, Chrystin Rice, a shelter employee, told The Associated Press, but no one has yet filled out an adoption application. “We’ve had a few calls come in, but everyone’s just kind of asking how’s she doing, when’s the surgery,” Rice said.
