Lucille

We love her! The cat thinks we are crazy and has been quite vocal to us about this. But the dog has been very good with him--wanting to sniff him but wisely not getting too close. Hopefully, given time the cat will figure out that he will not be chased to ground by the big, black shadow that has moved in. We have tried out several names for her and were settling on Beatrix until I called her Bellatrix and that was the end of that. Declan chose Caoimhe (KWEE-va), an Irish name that means beautiful, precious, beloved, gentle, and graceful. Perfect. She is working on a graceful as steps seem to be quite a conundrum. The cat is pleased with this as it means Caoimhe wont follow him into the basement. Sunday it took Caoimhe until quarter to 3 to finally stop exploring and lie down. She has survived a bath, nail clipping, weighing, daily walks, and a run around with Declan. Shes quite a change from our last dog. Shes wonderful!
