Joanna Lumley has a dog named Judy.

Kinky

Rescued

Kinky the cat was rescued by Joanna Lumley and her mother during a walk, after they heard pitiful mewing from a well. The kitten, the last of a litter that had been thrown in to drown, was saved when Lumley’s mother lowered their dog Judy’s lead into the well, allowing the kitten to grab on and be pulled out. The family took Kinky home, and he was named for the kink in his tail, a common trait among native cats.[1]
