Lucy the feral cat

My husband used to work at our local Walmart and every morning when he was out in the parking lot cleaning up, he saw this cat. For two years or better, he got a can of cat food for her and left it opened by the outside pop machine. Eventually she would know his voice and came running.

One day we had to fly home to Oregon for our son's funeral. When we got home, Bob did not see the cat for days. Then one day out of the blue she re-appeared, so he called me and asked if he could bring the cat home.

We went to our local PAAS and borrowed a cage, and with the coaching of him, he was able to get the cat in the cage. I called our local veterinary and told them I had the cat and wanted her flea bathed and fixed, and they took care of her and we brought her home. It took months of food and love to convince Lucy we weren't going to hurt her. This was 3 years ago and she is a wonderful girl and a great addition to our family.
