Lynx
Your Pet's Story
Kitty Lynx is our approximately 18 year old tortoise shell kitty. She is the oldest of our 4 rescue animals, and sometimes is affectionately know as "Old Lady Kitty Lynx." We came across kitty Lynx as a kitten lost on Keith Hills Golf Course in North Carolina. We saw her on a couple of occasions, attempted to catch her, but to no avail. We always had our dog, Buddy, with us - so she was never willing to approach. We went to the golf maintenance shack, located in our neighborhood, and informed the staff of our dilemma. We were concerned that the kitten would fall victim to wild prey. Two days later, one of our wonderful maintenance guys, appeared with a cat carrier with kitten in tow! He left the carrier with us, and we let the kitten come out on her own accord. It was not long before Kitty Lynx felt quite comfortable in the house, and became a permanent part of the family. Needless to say, her name was derived from the location we found her (golf course...aka links...aka Kitty Lynx)! Kitty Lynx has now been a resident of the Flower Mound community for over 10 years, after taking a few months at grandma's house in Alabama during relocation from North Carolina. She loves to sleep by her mommy's head (always has), and is full of spit and vinegar. She disappears when strangers come over, but loves to hang out with the family. We even see her from time to time sleeping on mom and dad's bed with the other two rescue cats that came many years after her.
