She prefers not to have her rear touched, but she enjoys a good chin scratch from those she trusts. Once she’s comfortable, Lucy's unique personality shines, rewarding respect for her boundaries with charming moments of connection. Given her past experiences, Lucy would thrive as the only pet in a calm home environment. She’d do best with children aged 13 and up, where family members can give her space and understand her quirks.
