These are all such great heartwarming stories. Here are my stories:

STORM:

I was looking for a kitten but it was January and there really weren't any to be found. I went to the Humane Society and told them that I wanted a loving friendly purring cat. I looked at the all of the cats inside but none of them stole my heart. The lady said that there were some stray cats outside in another building so I went to see them. I picked up a large black male cat named Midnight and he seemed to be very friendly but a little too large.
I was going to look at his paper work and as I passed the cages, a gray cat stuck his paw out at me to get my attention. I ended up holding him and he was purring very loudly and very friendly and loving. His name was Storm.

I adopted him that day and they said he was 2 years old but I found out that he was only 1 year old. He's now almost 8 years old. I'm so glad that I found him. He's the one that started my cat family.

RB Pepper:
Since Storm was a very social cat and I was working long hours, I decided to adopt another cat. It was May and this time I wanted a kitten. I went to Petco and ended up adopting a 9 week old kitten through a rescue organization called CARE. Pepper and Storm bonded in only an hour. I only had Pepper for almost 6 years because he had to be put to sleep due to illness. I still miss him very much.

Sunny:
Storm needed another playmate because Pepper had become a very lazy cat and Storm was beginning to pick on him. Since I've always loved orange cats, I wanted a young male orangie. I wanted another kitten but ended up adopting an 8 month old Aby mix from a rescue organization called Unconditional Love. I didn't even know what an Aby was but soon learned all about the breed. I had already named him Sunny before I even adopted him and the name has fit him perfectly. He's my little ray of sunshine and is now 3 years old.

Cirrus:
After Pepper passed away I knew that I would be adopting another young male cat. I wanted another short haired cat and one that had different colors in his coat. I was shopping at Pet Club and found some rescue organizations with cats up for adoption on their bulletin board. I went to one of the websites and fell in love with a cat named Flint. He was 8 months old and a brown spotted and striped tabby.

I filled out the application online and went to see him the next day. He was much larger than I had expected and also very scared and shy. He was born to feral parents and wasn't held or picked up much as a kitten because his former owner became very allergic to him. He may have also been abused. I knew it would be a challenge but I still wanted to adopt him.I renamed him Cirrus to go with my weather theme and Nomilynn of PT suggested his new name for him. He's now 1 year old and has been with me for almost 7 months. He loves his new home and loves to be petted and brushed. He also gets along very well with Sunny and Sky.

Sky:
I was at a cat show with AmberLee and they were having adoptions there through the Humane Society. I looked at them briefly but none of them caught my eye. Later their stories were told and a cat named Herman caught my eye. He was a stray that had been shaved because his fur had been badly matted. He's a Siamese mix with sky blue eyes. They said he was 2 but turned out to be only 1 year old. A man was very interested in him so I thought good he'll get adopted and have a good home.

Later on they announced that another cat had been adopted. I went over to see which one it was. Well Herman was still there. I ended up holding him and playing with him and then falling in love with him. I adopted him that day and immediately changed his name to Sky. He's been with me for exactly 4 months today. He loves all 3 of his brothers and they love him too.

I'm so glad to have my 4 cats in my life. They bring a lot of joy to my life.
