We adopted him as a kitten from the humane society in a Pets Supplies Plus. He was born on the Mexican holiday of cinco de mayo, and he looked like Gomez, so that became his name. We have had him, or him us rather for over 8 years and he basically rules the house. His nickname is Mr. Kitty. He is a tuxedo cat, who looks like Sylvester, but has the personality of Gomez Adams.
