Lulu

## Basic Information - Name: Lulu (doesn't remember her last name) - Species: Anthro cat - Age: 21 (Best guess) - Height: 156 cm - Eye color: Hazel - Bust Size: D cup - Sexuality: Demi-pansexual

Physical Description

Lulu has pure white hair that goes to her shoulders. It's almost always in a mild tangle, though she washes it when she can. Her fur is a mix of brown and white. There's a strip of brown fur on her nose. The top half of her face is a lighter brown. Her shoulders and arms have brown fur. Her tail isn't very fluffy and is white and brown as well. Both her ears are brown. Her paw pads are also brown.

Due to her less-than-stellar diet of almost pure garbage, she's fairly soft, not lithe or skinny, though her regular tree climbing and sprinting (re: chasing birds and butterflies) helps keep her from getting fat.

She has 8 whiskers. Some of them are shorter than the others. She has claws instead of nails.

Style

Lulu doesn't exactly have a lot of options for style. She wears what she can, when she can, regularly digging around at lost and found for something new to wear when her current clothing gets too dirty.

She does hope that one day she can wear the clothes she sees in the mall or in shop windows. She has a deep interest in goth/punk but also sundresses, skirts, and other cute things.

She doesn't usually wear shoes, though she wants a pair some day.

Personality

Lulu is very inquisitive, curious, and maybe a bit silly, almost constantly wearing a smile for some reason, be it the sun feeling nice, the squirrels giving her food, or just because nothing bad had happened that day. She loves to explore and touch new things. She's been kicked out of a few houses and museums because of this.

She doesn't like to hurt people or see them hurt, but she has hurt people who have tried to hurt her. She does have claws and quite sharp teeth.

She loves being outside, being up trees, chasing birds and butterflies... and eating them. She won't eat the squirrels though. They give her fruit and nuts! The squirrels are her friends.

People, though? She doesn't really get them at all. Some of them are mean to her and she doesn't know why. The ones that aren't always look at her weird. And the ones that don't do that act like she doesn't exist. Though... She does latch onto people who treat her nicely. She looks forward to seeing those ones. She's followed a few home but... That almost never ends well. It's okay though. She just goes back to the park—no big deal.

She does like to give those who show her some sort of sustained kindness gifts though, before following them home... Usually. These can range from pretty rocks to dead birds to the occasional lost wallet.

Quirks and Mannerisms

• Doesn't talk much. She is terrible at speaking for almost any reason, preferring to just nod, shake her head, point, or try to mime her point across. When she speaks, it's usually because it's too important to mime or something number-related; you can't exactly mime math answers.
• Is a human—anthro—calculator. She's astounding at arithmetic. She doesn't think it's very special though.
• Plays with her own tail when nothing else is going on—strangles it, bats at it. It is NOT a nervous or anxious tic. She does it when bored and alone.
• Hisses when threatened. Bites and scratches when attacked.
• Washes off in the pond/lake occasionally, at night (so no one sees her naked).
• Sleeps in trees a lot. Falls out a lot too.
• Insanely high pain tolerance. Broke her arm once and went to the emergency room without even whimpering.
• Can and does swear (mostly in her head)

Likes

• Chasing things
• Trees (the taller the better)
• Head pats, ear scratches, belly rubs
• The mall
• Video games (uses the demo consoles at stores. Has never played a full game before)
• Cartoons (hasn't watched anything since she was a child)
• Thinks Beyblades are the coolest toys in existence
• Almost every food. Will eat discarded food happily.
• The cold (can tolerate being hot though)
• Rain (though not getting wet from it)

Dislikes

• Fish
• People who expect her to put out just because they tried to feed her or house her
• Hates doing "chores" or "work" in general
• Real snakes (extreme phobia. Pictures/media are fine.)
• Snobby people
• Birds (annoying)

Background

Lulu was—eight... Nine? She isn't sure. She hadn't ever had a birthday celebration, as far as she was aware. Her mom took her to the park one day. She spent all day running around and playing with the other children, having fun. One by one, the children went home until there was only her left.

The park was empty though. She couldn't find her mom. She looked, and looked, and looked.

And she stayed at the park, waiting for her mom to come back.

She never did.

Lulu never left the park though. She didn't see any reason to. It had friends. It had water, even a bathroom, and tons of places around.

Some people tried to take her away from the park, but she always went back because "what if she comes back?" Her mom still never did.

She stopped thinking that around 16 or 17, but she still never left the park because now it was her home. She loved the park, mostly. It got a bit cold sometimes.

She did try following a few nice people to their homes. Some of them turned out to not be so nice, expecting her to "earn her keep," so she left. Some of them turned out to be genuinely horrible, and she fled those homes, sometimes violently.

She still lives at the park. Though she's no longer waiting.

Relationships

• Parents: Lulu's dad died shortly after she was born. She doesn't even remember him. She only has vague memories of her mom left. She doesn't remember her much beyond the day at the park.
• Mr. and Mrs. Feeley: An old married couple who come by every week or two and are always nice to her. She followed them home but they asked her not to, so she didn't.
• Friends: Doesn't have any permanent friends. She still plays with the kids at the park sometimes, when the kids' parents let them play with her. She stays away from almost all the other homeless people.
• Romance: Isn't really sure about romance. She's never connected with anyone—not that she hasn't tried, mind you—but most people aren't interested in a half-feral cat lady—or they expect things she's not willing to give, just because they were nice to her. She's a virgin in all but hand-holding.
