Sunday Selfies with Lucy – The Newest Addition to Our Family!
On our Christmas Day post, we teased an exciting announcement that we would be sharing with you today. We don’t want to keep you waiting any longer, so we will just get right to it!
We’d like to introduce you to…
LUCY!
Lucy is the newest addition to our family, and yes… she is a woofie! Lucy is a 15-year-old Jack Russell Terrier and was actually one of my parents’ dogs and a childhood dog of mine! I remember the day that my stepmom brought her home – she was a 6-week-old puppy with a big ol’ butt and a big ol’ head, and she was the cutest thing ever. Now she is all grown up, and still adorable (though she has grown into her butt and head).
Lucy came to live with us a couple of days ago on Christmas Eve because there were some issues between her and one of my parents’ other dogs. They weren’t getting along very well, and it was becoming dangerous for Lucy. Rather than fear for Lucy’s safety, my parents asked us if we would welcome her into our home so she could live out her golden years peacefully. We of course said, “YES!”
We had some concerns about how Lucy would do with the cats, as she had never been around cats before, but those concerns were quickly dispelled! She hasn’t been phased by the cats at all, and the cats definitely don’t mind her either. In fact, Sophie has taken a particular liking to Lucy and follows her around everywhere. It’s pretty cute. I see an amazing friendship in the works between the two of them. Sophie and Lucy – the Adventuring Duo!
Today is Day 3 of Lucy living with us, and it seems like she’s been here forever. The transition has been easy, and she is a perfect fit! We couldn’t be more excited to have her join us. We look forward to what is to come on this new adventure for the KCC Gang!

Lucy is so adorable! Wow, she does not look 15. How wonderful that she is fitting in so quickly with all your kitties! Seems as this is truly meant to be!
Congratulations on the new member to your family! I’m so happy Lucy is already settling down and getting well along with kitties. Especially Sophie, I have a feeling that we are gonna see a lot of the two together 🙂
Welcome Lucy!

Lucy is absolutely ADORABLE! How wonderful that she just fit right in with the kitties…..and has already made friends. We hope she has a lot more great and happy years ahead – she sure deserves it after reaching the ripe old age of 15!
Love, Sammy
Lucy is a cutie…even if she is a woofie. 😉 We’re glad it seems to be working out so far. We think Sophie would get along with anybuddy. 🙂
Aw how sweet! Welcome Lucy 🙂 Glad she fits in well.
SOOOO exciting!!! Welcome to the family, Lucy!
SOOOO exciting!!! Welcome to the family, Lucy!
oh what a cutie Lucy is!!!! Welcome sweet girl!! You are sooooo lucky that the transition went well! You know what I am thinking? When we brought Dakota in with Cody it was a scent thing…….we made sure we all had the same scent. I bet when you visited Lucy your cats scent was on you and when you returned Lucy’s was on you for your cats…….they were probably all used to the scent, so that when she moved in, it didn’t seem strange to any of them! So happy for you!
What a wonderful thing! As a person living in a home filled with both dogs AND cats, let me welcome you to our club of interspecies harmony. You’ll love it!

Lucy is beautiful and has such a sweet smile! As you know, we have cats and a dog and they all get along so well.
P.S.: We have a special post about an extraordinary cat today. Hope you will stop by if you have a chance. Thanks!
Lucy is totally adorable, and we are so happy to meet to her. How funny for Sophie to now have a Woofie BFF. Sending love and hugs to all, including Lucy. Astrid sends a bazillion kisses and all her love to Sampy. XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
What a wonderful thing to do! I guess it would be Sophie who would accept Lucy for who she is. Congratulations and good luck! Let me know if you need any advice about dogs and cats living together. And give Lucy and extra belly rub (you can do those with dogs!) for me…

A good fit? That’s a blessing for you all!
Happy New Year and maybe see you t BlogPaws in 2016!
