Meet Vincent: 1st cat with titanium hind limbs

Vincent, a 3-yo old domestic cat, went through surgery in the US to have titanium-alloy prosthetic implants attached to his unnaturally short hind limb. The cat was missing its rear legs from the mid-tibia downwards, a ’very unusual abnormality’ according to the surgeon. Doctors do not know what could have caused the malformation. After the operation, Vincent is able to walk. COURTESY: RT’s RUPTLY video agency, NO RE-UPLOAD, NO REUSE - FOR LICENSING, PLEASE, CONTACT RT LIVE
