About Lucy

Meet Lucy, a delightful little lady full of love and personality. Rescued after being declawed, she has shown resilience and affection, serving as a gentle companion who thrives on your company. Whether you’re busy with work, studying, or just unwinding on the couch, Lucy finds joy simply being by your side. Don’t let her age fool you. Lucy knows how to have her fun, especially with her favorite string wand toy. After playtime, she loves to relax, soaking up the sun or bird watching. Her charming personality comes with a touch of sass; she will let you know how she prefers her pets if they aren’t quite to her liking. At heart, she seeks love and companionship from those around her. While she hasn't lived with dogs, Lucy has started to warm up to resident cats and even tries to play with one of them. She also enjoys the finer things in life, like her Churu snacks. Her preference for lower surfaces means she’s not likely to jump onto high places, but she’s working on strengthening her back legs every day. Lucy is on the lookout for a cozy home where she can enjoy sunbathing, bird watching, and cuddling with someone who will appreciate her charming nature. If you’re ready for a sweet, slightly sassy senior companion, Lucy might be the one for you.
