I was told today that I am such an original cat. I agree.

Mondays!
I was told this morning that I am a little obnoxious on Mondays. WHAT? ME? WHY?
Then I found out that some people (i.e. my vet people friends) don't particularly care for Monday mornings even though they do love their jobs they would rather crawl back into bed. I find this to be rather humorous and would love to actually see one of my people friends crawl into bed.... Can you jump into bed while crawling on all fours (or my case threes)? Well, for whatever reason people don't love mornings, I sure do. I thought that maybe if I shared why I love mornings, you to will learn to appreciate Mondays like I do.
My top 10 reasons why I LOVE Monday mornings:
10) People do very cool things in the morning like make dark hot water in a weird pot that smells up the entire room. That should make people happy my water doesn't look or smell that interesting, and I have even seen some people add milk to their hot dark water. Milk and cool dark water how devine!
9) People have these meeting things Monday mornings and everyone gets here early. Which is awesome because more people = more petting.
8) In the mornings it is colder outside so my people friends keep it nice and warm indoors. We cats love to be warm so please keep the temperature turned up.
7) People like to talk more on Monday mornings. I hear them talking about their weekends and what they did. I am still trying to figure out what a weekend is, but when people talk more they also stand around a lot more and this allows me to trick them into standing still long enough to stop and pet me!
6) More people bring food to work on Mondays than any other day! I for one have never met a leftover that I didn't enjoy.
5) It is so bright outside and inside! Why don't people appreciate this. I love lights they make it easier for you to see, and they are fun to stare at for hours and hours.
4) Dogs are more sleepy in the mornings too, which allows me to have more fun sneaking up on them.
3) Morning time is a purrfect time to play games. My favorite one is to jump into the empty trashcan wait until one of my people friends walks by and then I jump out and yell SURPRISE! Although come to think of it they don't really find this too funny.
2) Morning time is Kitty Yoga time! Find a comfortable spot, preferably on top of some important papers or across a keyboard and just stretch out and hold that position for as long as possible.
AND MY NUMBER ONE REASON I LOVE MONDAY MORNINGS OR JUST MORNINGS IN GENERAL IS...
1) YOU GET BREAKFAST!!!!!!! If it wasn't morning than you couldn't eat breakfast and that would stink. Plus since my people friends are a little more sleepy on Mondays I usually can trick one or two of them into thinking I haven't been fed yet. Hehe! People are so silly.

The "Tail" Begins!
Hello. Thanks for reading my blog. This blog is all about me, Chance.
First the obvious, I am a cat and I only have 3 legs. After one of my new people friends meets me the first thing out of their mouth is what happened to your/her leg? I am getting tired of this question... If I could talk I would say who cares about my 4th leg... I didn't need it anyway and I LOVE my other three legs so why is it a big deal to you human people? I see no disadvantage to me only having three legs, and in reality it is an advantage. I get by with things that other cats in my position might get scolded for and it was because of my bum leg in the first place that I came to live the best place in the world and be with all of my people friends. We cats are very rational. I had a bum leg that didn't work right, now it is gone and I get around just fine!
Okay, enough of me blabing here is the story about my 4th leg ...
I was found by a very nice, young, guy on a golf range when I was just a wee little kitten (about 4 weeks old) with a severe leg injury. The nice, young man took me in and took me to the most awesome place ever. He took me to see the doctors at Sedgefield Animal Hospital and Dental Center. The staff at the SAHDC checked me out and they think by the look of my leg that someone might have abused me by picking me up by my leg and throwing me. My shoulder was completely dislocated, and I had some pretty bad nerve damage that had been like that for a quite a while. The staff at the Sedgefield Animal Hospital decided to take me in and nursed me to back to health with love and TLC. They knew from the beginning that they couldn't save my leg. However, they wanted me to get big and strong before having surgery. When I turned 5 months old this past September the doctors knew I was ready for surgery to amputate my front leg. The day after my surgery I was ready to go, and haven't slowed down since. The staff thought they would be able to place me in a new home once I recovered from surgery, but by that point they had already fallen in love with my great and funny personality (hehe.. little do they know).
So, that's the story. Do I miss my 4th leg? NO! I am a purrfectly normal cat and I can do great cat things without my other leg. I can ride on my people friends' shoulders. I can climb to the top of the refrigerator or on top of the 7 ft. tall bookcases. I can trashcan dive and I can chase down the other hospital cat. Nothing is an obstacle for me. My name is Chance and I am a cat.
