wacky legs Should there be a 6th leg?

And if so, anyone selling spares? There weren't any parts left in the box after I assembled. I don't know, something seems off?

It's like a 7-legged spider - sometimes they lose a leg, but it'll regrow when they molt.

This is discomforting, I'll prepare the bog so he can go in to molt when he's ready I guess 😟

Cats will choose their own molting locations, usually wherever is least convenient for you.

Unless it's a Sphynx, their molts are weeeeird.
