I know, but I'll give someone else a chance. Good clue!
She looks like Marie Curie to me but I can't find any reference to your clue. Never the less I believe the resemblance is very strong.
She had a leg amputated, but carried on.
Could probably be googled now actress+leg+amputated but if I can guess one of the subjects of this "contest" I think it's only fair to not google unless you already recognize the subject. But of course I have no objection to others doing so.Check out actresses.
I cheated, so I'm not answering.You guys have it figured out!

Sara Bernhardt?
Wow, I would have never guessed that! What a strange desire she had. Perhaps a forerunner of all the people who are interested in implants and tattoes and studs and that kind of stuff. A tail!!!She also wanted to have a tail transplanted onto her back. She felt that she would be able to express emotion better with a (big) cat's tail.
That's Topper a famous movie horse.
I thought it was Tex Ritter until the mention of Topper....Now I know who it is
