About Lucy

Lucy, also known as Lucy Lu or Lulu, is a gentle soul with a playful side. This little tabby knows just how cute she is—she’ll often mimic her siblings but is equally happy spending time on her own. Lucy thrives on affection and can’t get enough head and neck scratches. She’s sweet-natured, content, and draws people in with her docile charm. Lucy gets along beautifully with other cats, and she’s comfortable hanging out solo as well. She needs a home where there’s already an animal companion and all resident animals are kept current on vaccines and spayed/neutered if old enough. Due to her delicate size, households must have children at least 8 years old. Lucy will come current on her kitten vaccinations and tested before adoption; her microchip comes at the time of her alter surgery. Ready to offer Lucy the safe, loving home she deserves?
