This guy. He's got quite a story, and we may never know all of the details, but what you should know is this: Rock's done hard time for a crime he didn't commit - being left behind by some neglectful owner. When we pulled him from Animal Control, we quickly discovered that, despite his difficult past, Rock still has a loving heart that allows him to let others in. He's playful, loving and even chatty - toward fellow cats and people too. If you're the type of compassionate person who's been through some hard things, but have succeeded in spite of them, you might just find a soul mate (and some serious inspiration) in Rock.
