cool cat

Meet the newest addition to our family, Harry Caray Moore. The whole process of acquiring this cat was so easy, it was clearly just meant to be.
Dan had a cat of this breed when he was in college, and he thought that Hobbes was just the most amazing cat ever. Since they're known for being extremely smart, fun, and a great pet, we thought that someday it would be fun to get one. I just happened to look on craigslist yesterday, and lo-and-behold a couple had just posted that they needed to find a new home for their Bengal cat, and they lived in basically our neighborhood. I emailed him with a few questions, we decided to zip over and meet the cat and put him me through an allergy test---if I got any itch, it would have been a deal breaker. Luckily, I had absolutely no reaction to his fur, he was engaging and cute on our visit, the people could see that he was going to a good home, and that was it----Harry would be ours in the morning! The boys got up with cat on the brain, started making toys for him, and then he arrived at about 11:30. Now we are a family of 5.

That is one good looking cat. A lot cuter than our mangy cats.
