Longtime sanctuary resident Lucy came to RAPS from a pet store when the pet store closed down.
Already an adult when she arrived, Lucy was very friendly and loved to climb into a welcoming lap for a good cuddle. She soon showed an unpredictable side, though, sometimes suddenly acting up in the middle of a visit with swats and bites. As a result, she was never able to be adopted out.
These days she seems to have mellowed, though I'm told she can still nip on occasion. I myself have had nothing but rubs and purrs from her so far.
RAPS is short for Regional Animal Protection Society, a registered charity and operator of a sanctuary which houses and cares for nearly 500 homeless or abandoned cats in Richmond, BC, Canada. The Neko Files is a celebration of the sanctuary and all those who live and work there.
