Wubert with Feathered Hair

When Lucy was younger, way back when, she never really noticed Wubert. However, now that the kid is almost eight months old, that has changed big-time. Lucy now finds Wubie endlessly fascinating. Whenever he waddles by, she attempts to grab his tail or stroke/grope his fur. She emits high pitched laughs and squeals of delight whenever Wubie does something clever or funny, like dry-heave a hairball or snore.

Yep, she’s so entranced by our portly feline boarder that at times I equate her ardor with what I’d imagine a teenybopper would have for a favorite celebrity. Thus, occasionally when Wubie walks by and Lucy goes gaga, I imagine it’s 1971, and a bell-bottoms wearing Lucy is following Keith Partridge’s every move—as he looks for his crunchie bowl.
