Great Cats for Great Homes

(This is a long one so buckle up because I have so much to say about this special girl) Lu has brought so many cuddles to our life’s for 5 and a half years. She’s a very sweet but shy girl. She’s an indoor cat that has lots of interest in looking out open doors and soaking up the sun. My husband found Lu as a small kitten, maybe 6 weeks old. She was brought home to a house of two dogs, one cat and our at the time 6 month old baby. We got Lu fixed a few months after she was brought home.

To this day our big fluffy girl likes to spend most of her time curled up on her bed in our closet where it’s quiet. Lu loves to make her presence known when our dogs aren’t around. She loves to cuddle up on the couch with me especially if I have a blanket and bed time is her favorite. That’s when she’ll talk and nudge you for pets.

Unfortunately for Lu our house has always been overwhelming for her. Although our dogs don’t bother her often, she does not enjoy their presence especially in this last year. We’ve tried pheromone sprays and taken her to the vet to make sure her health is in order. But our dogs are just very high energy and unfortunately that isn’t something we can change to help Lu not feel so overwhelmed.

Lu has always gotten along with our other cat and might do fine with an older not so high energy dog. Lu’s never had a problem with children but she has not been handled by any because of how shy she is. She has claws but doesn’t know how to use them lol. She’s always been very easy to pick up and hold.  I’d love to see Lu go to a much calmer environment where she can get all the cuddles and attention she wants, when she chooses.

Lu will definitely let you know when she’s hungry by following you around and talking to you especially if you’re close to her food bowl! She has a special blanket and small scratching post that we’d like her to take to a new home once we find that perfect place! She truly is such an amazing girl and I wish we didn’t need to find her a new home. But for her own well being we know it’s necessary.  Indoor only - rehoming fee is $40
