    Three and a half legged much loved abomination is in pain.

    You definitely need a consultation. Depending on where the leg is missing, it may be a huge source of irritation to her and depending on the cause, there may be pain.

    ...she starts showing interest I might have to get creative with some baby gates, but I feel bad about doing that because of Meko, my three legged cat.
