[MUSIC PLAYING] – Hi, I’m Rick Hamblin, and this is my cat, Fred. I grew up with dogs, not cats, so I never really liked cats that much. But a couple of years ago, my wife, who loves cats– a friend of ours had found this cat on the A train platform at the subway station at 125th Street. And desperately, this cat, abandoned, needed a home. So Carol said, well, why don’t we just adopt him? Give him just a week, see what it’s like. Seven years later, Fred is mine.
