Meet Edward

​Hi, my name is Edward!  I am also known as Eddy Spaghetti, Fast Eddy and Squidward (from Sponge Bob Square Pants).
 
I was born with a deformed leg, which was not growing “normally”, and was brought into Centennial Animal Hospital to get it examined.  It was determined that I would need extensive surgery and lifelong care and that was not financially possible.  Thankfully, my mom fell in love with me on the spot.  She stepped up right away, adopted me and got me the necessary veterinary care.    Unfortunately, I did have to have my leg amputated but I live an amazing life, in the best home I could ever have asked for.  I am now almost 5 years old and get along really well on 3 legs.  I still think that I can run really fast and sometimes wipe out in my enthusiasm to get where I am going.
 
I have a younger brother named Gideon, an older sister named Thea and then there is the cat, Eli Gammon.  I feel the cat is just some distant relative that lives with us and I have no idea why we keep him.  My mom thinks that I am really smart because I learn things very quickly.  I learned how to “sit pretty” in record time.  I don’t want to brag but I did learn it pretty quickly!
 
I have 2 favorite pastimes.  The first is eating!  I love food however, my mom needs to keep me on a strict diet to ensure extra weight does not harm my other joints.  The second is napping!  I am not picky. I am happy to curl up whether it is on the couch or my soft, squishy dog bed.
 
It was nice talking with you all but I must go because I just notice the couch is free and I am pretty tired!
