1986 - 2001

Lucy

Lucy passed away on 20 July 2001.

In her own unique way she was a great companion and will be sadly missed.

Lucy spent the first 10 years of her life with my sister and brother in law. When they visited New Zealand in 1997 she came to stay with me together with their other cat Charlie who passed away in 2005.

Whilst Charlie was always the dominant of the two, Lucy managed to get her fair share of attention and took great pleasure from having her tummy rubbed whenever she could persuade me.

A great lover of food, Lucy wasn't the most energetic of cats but if the sun came out she would enjoy the occasional stroll out into the garden.

Fifteen months ago Lucy was diagnosed with kidney failure which is a common disease in cats and for which there is no cure. However, with regular medication she had a pleasant last fifteen months to her life and is now at peace.

P.S. If you have a cat suffering from kidney failure then an excellent site for help and support is:-
