Gotcha Date: September 21st 2012 Arrival Story: Imo came to my hubby and i as a stray. We suspect that he had either been dumped off to fend for himself, or had been abused. For he had a horrible fear of people, and would run if you came anywhere near him. We started leaving food out on our porch and slowly started getting him used to our presence. The temptation of having regular food available did the trick. He started allowing physical contact, by letting steven stroke his head. It took a few weeks but then one magical day, he jumped into my hubby's lap. And eventually he warmed up to me, and has become my baby. We have adopted him. And it has been quite an adventure getting my other three kitties used to his rambunctiousness. But I dont regret my decision. And I honestly believe that he was sent to us for a reason..
