Thank you for your kind words.

It was I suppose luck of the draw that I wound up with Lucy. Her mother's mom was abandoned by my neighbor when they moved out. They just kind of left her on the porch and said peace out to her. So I took her to the vet, got her checked out and updated and brought her in myself. Then she had 6 kittens, but the only problem is, once they grew older they didn't like staying inside. So, Delabell kind of raised them outside and they'd come in for food and water, a bath and that was that. Delabell was hit by a neighbor who was speeding in my neighborhood. One of HER kittens was also killed by a speeder in my neighborhood. Then one of her kittens, who I call Puddin, really latched onto me and she's the inside cat. She wound up pregnant. One of her kittens died because he had a severe infection, the vet said. Now Lucy. Puddin still had two siblings that hang outside my house. I feed them and such, but every time I try to get them in they go nuts. So I made them a little place to crawl inside if it's raining or cold, and put blankets and toys on my porch for them. To make some light of this, my friends call me the cat lady because I have like a thousand cats who hover around my house. It's like they tell their homeless cat friends that i'll supply food if they just hang around

Basically, I have an enormous soft spot for animals. My dog was also a dog who was abandoned. He was just a pup and now he's like half my size.

I have a Lucy too, and about the same time we got her, my mom got a recliner too, and that was my biggest fear that my mom would get in it and Lucy would be in there and get her little neck snapped.

Aw That was my biggest fear, too. I'm going to be honest and say the reason I named her Lucy was from my sincere love for Lucille Ball.

When I think of cat lady, I think of someone who sits around and talks to them as they're their only friends That's not me! I just have a huge, huge, huge soft spot for animals that I can't help. But I guess to my neighbors I am that cat lady who has a bazillion cats chillin on her porch and inside.

Mine is named for Ms. Ball too.

Now this is just made of awesome. I have been a hardcore fan of hers' since I was a baby sitting in my mama's lap while she was watching re-runs. She's my favorite of all time!
