Description: Gabriel is a very lovely intuitive Tabby. He came to us via someone who had previously adopted a cat from us. She was sitting outside her house crying because she had just lost one of her pets. From out of nowhere appeared this gentle cat, nosing her as if to say, "It's going to be ok." She named him Gabriel because he was her angel in time of sorrow. Sadly, he didn't mesh with her other pets and so could not keep him. Well, that's ok, we'll find him a great home!
12.12.08 Volunteer Update~ Ok, first of all, Gabriel's pictures do him no justice. This cat is STUNNING. His coat is silver-grey and it has this wonderful silky texture. Secondly, today was my first time meeting Gabriel and we must have hit it off or something because he was PERFECT for me. He let me pet him and hold him, and he wandered around the cat room while I was cleaning just taking in the sights. He was stand-offish with our big males, but the kittens seemed to fascinate him. He's living next to two right now, and I think he secretly enjoys watching them play. Anyway, this cat is amazing. I'm really glad he found his way to us so that we can help him find his way to his people!
