Thanks for the comments all!
@ Karen - it's funny you mentioned their eyes. I think that was the main thing that attracted me to Chance. He just had the most woeful, yearning look in his eyes. It didn't last long, though.
Funny unrelated story about when I adopted him - when we went to pick him up at the SPCA vet after he got neutered, the lady at the counter mentioned that he had tore up the papers on the front of his cage somehow. She said she "just wanted to let you know what you've gotten yourself into." His first night home he tore up my mom's checkbook (that was certainly symbolic of things to come!) He still tears up napkins, tissues, cardboard boxes, etc whenever he gets the chance. My mom still has that checkbook too - she says it reminds her of him.
