Tabby kittens & cats in Deridder, Louisiana

I adopted Lucy in Spring 2023 from a shelter in Houston, Texas, and she has been the sweetest little fur baby. Before I met my husband, Lucy was an indoor/outdoor cat: she was born without a tail, and so she does not have complete nerve endings at the end of her spine - she hops like a rabbit (it does not cause her pain, and she runs and jumps around just fine). My husband is highly allergic to cats, and so we have been trying to transition Lucy to an outside cat (we have an air conditioned garage that we keep her in at night. We just recently had our first child, which makes the need to keep her outside even more important. That being said, she is so much happier being an indoor/outdoor cat, and I do not want to deprive her of the happy, spoiled life she deserves. I love her, and doing this absolutely breaks my heart. I just want to do right by her.

Mother was stray. Cannot keep them. I already have 3 adult cats, one elderly disabled, one with diet restrictions and one with no issues. It is very expensive for my cats so it creates a financial burden to keep them.
