Lucy

Lucy is a sweet and cuddly little lady with a charming personality. She was surrendered along with her sister by their previous owner because he could no longer take care of them. Lucy loves being the center of attention of any room and rushes to greet new guests at the door, immediately demanding cuddles and belly rubs. She is a social butterfly and although she is 9 years old, she is still spunky and full of energy. There will never be a dull moment in the house because of her playful and curious energy. Although she is friendly, she would thrive best in a home without dogs or cats, especially because of her FELV+ diagnosis which means she needs extra monitoring by vets. If you're looking for an affectionate and easy going furry friend, look no further! **Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV) is a virus that is specific to cats that attacks and weakens a cat's immune system. Cats with FeLV can live normal, happy, healthy lives-with a shorter life expectancy than cats without FeLV. In the past, cats with FeLV in shelters were euthanized as soon as they were diagnosed. PAWS takes a different stance: we enable FeLV+ cats to live out their lives in loving homes. For more information feel free to check out the FeLV FAQs we have available on our website!** Age: 9 years How I came to PAWS: Owner surrender Animal ID#: A55673 I am not at the shelter.
