Good Buddies
For now, our dear Lucy Cat lives under our A-frame guest house. She has quite comfortable quarters complete with heater, heat lamp over a stuffed, sheepskin bed, and plenty of food and water. She spends her day supervising the building of our log home and in her spare time sits by the bird feeders waiting to pounce on an unsuspecting birdie. She and Maddie are the best of friends.
