    Vincent the cat has been test-driving his new legs, which have been given to him by Iowa State Unviersity, America.

    After being born with only two front legs, Vincent, aged 3, has lived a limited life.

    He was adopted by owner Cindy Jones after she found him at an animal shelter when he was a kitten.

    Thanks to new technology and design developments, Vincet now has a pair of alloy-titanium legs, that allow him to run and walk, like a normal cat.

    The titanium-alloy legs are top-of-the-range, and were attached by vet Dr Mary Sarah Berg, who works in the Iowa State University Lloyd Veterinary Medical Centre.

    In the photos, Vincent can be seen enjoying himself and strolling around the exam room.
