    Impulse eating!!

    You know what's funny? We fed her tonight and when she had a few kernels left in her food dish and walked away from it! I was baking cookies in the kitchen and saw this and had to tell my fiance... I'm like, "LOOK!" he goes, "Whoa.. that never happens!" But then she realized there was food left...

    Yeah Lucy is VERY terrified of the vacuum. Even a knock on our door and she's going, "WHO IS THAT!?" and looks all around in a panic.

    Impulse eating!!

    We adopted our cat from the SPCA two years ago. I'm not too sure what her previous owners did to her but there's been a few things we've noticed (ie: scared of vacuums, like petrified... even if I move it a couple inches to get at something else, she's under the bed right away!) but one thing I...
