I love my fat cat. That is no surprise to anyone that knows me. In fact, Lucy was a whopping 24 pounds the last time she was weighed, and she is purely a ball of love. My husband calls her his Furball, but to be honest she’s more like a dumbbell. For the record, we do not overfeed her (with the exception of some tuna when my husband makes tuna salad). She is a happy cat, even more so when she gets her daily allotment of food.
We couldn’t go on vacation without taking our beloved daughter with us, so that’s exactly what we did. While we were at the airport, I surprised my husband with “Flat Lucy,” and the fun began there. We took photo after photo with Lucy in many different vacation situations. She started in the airport with a drink, and she ended relaxing on the beach. She played Foosball and she frolicked in the bushes with the lizards. She relaxed on a raft in the ocean and she ate dinner every night at our table. Kibbles please?However, I must say, Lucy’s personal favorite vacation highlight was most definitely the bacon in the breakfast buffet. She filled her whole breakfast plate with bacon each morning.
Take your own traveling pet with you, simply by printing a photo on cardstock, cutting it out, and gluing it to a popsicle stick! I chose two different Lucy’s: one headshot and one full body shot (not life size).

Haha thanks! You should have seen people staring at us as we took her photos! But, totally worth it! 🙂

LOL – I LOVED finding this – I will have to do the same with Archer. We are still working on ways to get his liter box to work in the rPod (mini trailer) so that it doesn’t ‘take over’ the trailer – ewww lol.
I’m sure Michael (BF) would prefer the cardboard version (just as much as I prefer that version of Sammy). Nothing like traveling with pets… (or little kids).

You should! It was so fun, and the photos are such a good memory. We had so many of our friends and family ask us if we really took her on our trip! 🙂

Meow…hopefully the next trip you take the real me. Meow.
