I got tired of the self-centric lifestyle of a young professional in DC: living every moment of your life focusing on nothing other than yourself. Enter Lucky. I brought my new cat home from the DC Animal Shelter today after a many days of paperwork and home visits. Lucky was a tough cat for the shelter to place because he's large, old, and not as lively as the other younger cats they have. When I picked him up I was something of a hero to the workers. They actually clapped as I walked out the door! I even got an email from the PRESIDENT of the Board for the Washington Humane Society: "I was simply overjoyed to learn that Lucky had found a wonderful new home. He is a noble cat and I have been so concerned about him." I'm sure I'll be clogging this site with more photos, so stay tuned.
Wow! He's beautiful! You are LUCKY to have found such a cool cat! Hope to meet him some day.
