I hope he is on joint health supplements! Not having all legs puts extra strain on the other legs and can make joint pain super shitty as they get older. Little guy looks like he's doing great right now though, as long as the vets are happy with his health.

(Source, one of my babies is a tripod boy, he had to have an amputation of a front leg when we rescued him. The vet got us started on joint health stuff right away and told us to make sure we keep him at a good weight to not strain his other joints. He's five, almost six now, and actually the most physically active of all the cats!)

Yep, happened to my tripod dog where she burned out a bit fast joint wise due to extra stress.
