This Week's Pet: A Black Cat That Might be Lucky

Meet Herman, a calm and affectionate cat up for adoption at PAWS Animal Shelter in Tinley Park. He'd be a warm addition to the home.

Herman is a 2-year-old Domestic Shorthair cat in need of a home. 

Don't be fooled by the black fur. This guy is gentle and appreciates being petted. He was found as a stray in Tinley Park and has been living at PAWS Animal Shelter since Dec. 13. He has been neutered and still has his claws.

Staff at PAWS describe him as a sweet boy.
