"Torties are like tiny dictators, demanding snuggles and belly rubs while pretending to be aloof. Lucy is no exception!"

That is one fine looking kitty…

Lol! She was the first kitten I had ever seen that had that extra belly skin just ready to go. It’s like her genetics just knew and they were ready for her to be a big girl.

My older tortie is like this. The shelter warned me she doesn't like to be picked up or held and that she's very standoffish. This is the same girl who demands to be snuggled and petted and put in my lap, the same one who headbutts my face so I give her forehead kisses. Loves belly rubs and feels like silk velvet.

That's because you're awesome and she knew that. Keep being you. I love taking in the ones others don't want. They are usually the best.

Lucy is beautiful, @OP. I'm so glad she found her Forever Family with you, and has blossomed under your care. She'll always have that tortietude, but it's wonderful to see how much she trusts you. My rescue girl, Natasha, says hello.

Please give Natasha a kiss and a head scratch from me.

Thank you, and I shall!

My little Hoover has started coming into the office to demand love, belly petting included. It's so amazing! Lucy is, of course, an angel.

Demanding pets is one thing, but belly petting is priceless.
