This story makes me cry actually... or maybe it's my hormones

Anyhow, it is a good story about a man and how much he values his cat.

Daniel Harlan, a slight man with a wispy beard going gray, is just another face in the crowd in San Francisco. He is homeless, a street panhandler. Most people wouldn't give him a second glance except for his constant companion, a pug-nosed Himalayan cat named Samantha.

Hopefully the publicity will make people keep a lookout for the cat especially if the thief tries to sell it on...
