Happy Ending for a Homeless Man




Daniel Harlan, one of the many homeless men and women residing in the Bay Area, was reunited with his companion of many years, a Himalayan cat named Samantha. Harlan's cat dissapeared from the homeless encampment where he was residing, and he was distraught to have lost his best friend of four years. Thanks to an article published in the San Francisco Chronicle, the word got out about Harlan's situation and the cat was returned to him, and they enjoyed a tearful reunion.
This story demonstrates the everyday tragedies and insecurities of homeless life, Harlan never hurt anyone, and loves his cat to death, however he is unfortunate enough to be a homeless man in our current economy. Everyone in America deserves a safe, dry place to rest their head at night, and the sense of security that their possessions (and pets) will remain their own.
