Forelegs

Etymology

Simple plural form of 'foreleg,' formed by adding the standard English '-s' suffix to indicate more than one.

Kelly Says

When a cat walks, its forelegs place with precision similar to a tightrope walker—they're primary steering organs that let cats turn mid-jump in ways four-legged animals shouldn't theoretically manage.
