Mercury lost his two front legs in an accident when he was just four days old. But instead of giving up on life, he's since beaten the odds and has become an inspiration that while life may treat you to lemons at times, there's no reason you can't make lemonade out of it.

Check out some amazing pictures of Mercury in the gallery:

Mercury's penchant for life is fiery. He's adorable, and is known for being pretty sassy at times.

Mercury got into an accident with a weed-whacker when he was four days old. He lost his front legs and some of his back toes.

Mercury has adapted to his handicap to the point where he doesn't even notice he's different from other cats. Who needs four legs when you've got two?

Mercury has never given up.

His humans say that Mercury is happy and is in no pain.

And he's a ball of fun to be around with.

Like every other cat, he loves toys.

And can play with other cats around the house too.

But they'll never be able to beat him, doing this T-Rex impression.

We may face tough challenges in life, but where there's a will, there's a way. You can always overcome anything you set your mind to.
