When I was at a cat show,the Humane Society was there so I looked at each cat and I even commented that I was glad that there weren't any kittens because I would be very tempted. I already had 3 cats at home so I wasn't even looking for any more.

When I saw,Herman,now Sky, I thought that he looked very interesting and I hoped that he would find a home that day. He had a lion cut because his fur had been matted and very beautiful light blue eyes. I heard them call a name saying that so and so had just been adopted. I went to see if it was Herman but it was another cat.

They asked me if I wanted to hold Herman and I said sure. Well that was all it took besides his wonderful personality and his gorgeous blue eyes. I didn't like the name Herman so I told them that his new name would be Sky. He had become the cat shows favorite adoption cat so everyone was thrilled to learn that he had a new home. He's been such a wonderful cat and I'm so glad that I decided to add him to my family that day. I can't believe that I now have 6 cats.

I guess I should also include Pearl and Ziggy Stardust to this thread too. I adopted them from K & L and like Jenn I fell in love with their pictures. Pearl was also my grandmothers name so I knew that I had to have her and Ziggy reminded me so much of Sky. I also didn't have any female cats so I needed to add a few to the mix.
