About Lucy

Meet Lucy, a lovely Domestic Short Hair who has had quite the journey. Born in August 2014, she was once adopted as a kitten but faced challenges when returning to a home with more dominant cats. Lucy came to Paws Cat Shelter with thyroid issues, but after surgery, she's made a fantastic recovery, now thriving as a healthy medium-sized girl. Lucy is a bit shy and prefers to approach affection at her own pace. While she enjoys treats, especially the Churu kind, she can get nervous and may swat if overstimulated. She's looking for a calm environment where she can feel safe. Despite her timid nature, she gets along with passive cats but prefers a home without dogs and small children. A patient and loving guardian will help her thrive, offering the warmth and love she deserves. Adoption fee is $75. Ready to give Lucy a place to call home?
