Well, guys, it's official. My parents have become cat people, even though they're not quite ready to admit it.
As many of you know, they recently adopted a 3 1/2 year old neglected kitty named Lucy. This came after many years of them being without a pet and my dad swearing there wouldn't be any more.
Now, whenever I call, the first thing either mom or dad talks about is Lucy. It's Lucy this and Lucy that. They are also think she's the most purrfect, beautiful and intelligent feline of all time. My dad couldn't wait to show me how she runs around the room and chases and flips for the laser pointer. He thinks she is incredibly talented. I didn't have the heart to tell him most cats react to the laser pointer that way.
Mom told me recently that if Lucy wants attention and someone's not in the room with her, she comes to where they are and yells at them to get them to to follow her. Of course, they obey.
They been very concerned about her wellbeing and happiness, asking my advice about the right food and making sure she has plenty of toys. Lucy even has her own little basket now in the living room filled with toys.
Yep, they're cat people.
