Lulu update


Here is some good news about Lulu the neglected Cat .
Some of you will remember we took her to her new home with an elderly lady two weeks ago.
We have had news today that she is doing well although is quite nervous, she is hiding quite a bit and ran upstairs everytime the front door opened. Jean has moved her litter tray and drink upstairs and is quite happy for her to be up there. When Jean's daughter and grand children visit she comes down when called and enjoys them making a fuss of her. Unfortunately she still mostly hides from Jean
Jean is very understanding and is happy to give her the time she needs to settle properly.
Apparently each night when Jean gets into bed and turns out the light, Lulu jumps on the bed, creeps up and sleeps under Jeans arm.
She has gone from being an unwanted cat to a treasured one.

Re: Lulu update


awww that is cute how she creeps up under her arm. hopefully she will overcome her fear of Jean soon and become a more confident cat, but great progress so far!

Re: Lulu update


Oh that is such good news! She probably is having difficulty at accepting she's actually indoors, warm, fed, safe and loved. Sounds like good progress to me, and love it that she's sharing the bed now! Do keep us posted when you can, Shelley, well done you!

Re: Lulu update


Maybe in Lulu's life open doors mean being put out. Glad the news is good she will soon come to realise that her bread is well and truely buttered there.

Re: Lulu update


So glad for Lulu-she seems to have found a really loving home
We lost our Lulu-14 yr old collie cross at the end of January and this post made me think of her and made me cry as we miss her so much
Good luck Jean and thank you from YOUR LULU

Re: Lulu update


Maureen, i am sorry for the loss of your Lulu and sorry the post made you cry, i understand, the loss is awful.
Lulu is doing well in her new home, she's following Jean downstairs now everyday and watches tv with her in the evening.

Re: Lulu update


Thanks for the update on Lulu, Shelley!. I do believe she's settling in ... it will take awhile for her to really feel safe, I suspect.
