BARRINGTON - A fellow new to town has stolen four Barrington ladies' hearts.  
He's trim and sociable and has steel-grey hair. His name is Bumbles, and he's 
a  domestic short-haired cat that relies on a small aluminum cart to help him 
get  around. "He is unbelievably gorgeous," said Dr. Lynn Anne Evans of 
Barrington  Veterinary Clinic, one of the ladies smitten with the silver and black 
tiger  striped cat. Lisa Serio, Sherri St. Angelo and Stacey Wright, 
technicians at  BVC, are the three other women who've fallen for the feline.  
Bumbles has called the Barrington Veterinary Clinic home since last November, 
 when a Barrington resident found him on a curbside and delivered him there. 
He  was three weeks old and weighed one pound.  
  Bumbles's cart  has been customized with a blue neoprene waist wrap, 
red-taping, and  American flags. 
Upon Bumbles' arrival, it was apparent something was wrong with him. When  
trying to move around, he would take a step, then fall, take another step, then  
fall again. Bumbles couldn't walk.
