Why you should never judge a book by its cover..

I'm w/ya on that one, Cindy. When I dated a biker, if we were leathered up and got off the bike, sometimes mothers would actually grab their children and hold them close. Now really, do I look like a biker mama? My date didn't sport one tat either but apparently we projected an image that some people found scary. If they only knew that I had a houseful of furkids and he had two yellow labs.

Yup, Bruce has ZERO tattoos and I have one small one on my ankle that you can't see when we're riding because of long pants and boots. And it's a flower. But on vacation I always went up to people that had their dogs (we saw so many dogs on this trip), except when I was in full leathers or my helmet on. I didn't want to scare the dogs. LOL

we saw a bumper sticker last week that goes along with the story and the pictures.."Real men rescue cats"

There is not a smilie icon big enough to show how much I loved the story.

Looks like a goth version of Rescue, Ink; a group of highly-tattooed biker types that live on Long Island and do cat and dog rescue. No one is gonna mess with them or their cats!

Oh My my that was such a Great Story with a Heart Warming Ending.. I have got joyfull tears in my eyes.. Way to go Matt & Gus.. Yes tripods can go faster than four legged if they want..

Thank you for the story! I think I probably have done that once or twice, looked at someone and though badly because of the way they look. I think I get some of that from my father but I seriously try not to be like him. Sadly, I would consider him a racist. He is 86 and has preconceived notions that will never change.

Anyone that has a heart for animals is definitely a good person in my book!

Thats great that Gus has found a devoted Friend and vice versa.
And you are rigght about judging books by thier cover, I have heard from Animal Welfare that some of the people who abandon Cats are the ones who look the most respectable.
