c121083 and I just got a cat. His name is Steamboat and he is a ten-year-old Scottish Fold whose owners had to give him up because their three-year-old son has asthma and is allergic to cats.
Apparently our apartment administration might require us to de-claw the poor guy. I'm hoping we can get around it by keeping his nails clipped, but I doubt there are that many shades of gray to the situation.
You can see some pictures of him here:
