Meet The Newest Addition to Our Family - Oliver

This is the excitement I was hoping for today. Hubby and I have been watching a no-kill animal shelter site and this cute baby showed up a few days ago. His name is Oliver. He's 7 years old. He's front de-clawed. He weighs 17 pounds. He's been at our hour for about 3 hours now and he's settling in just fine. He hasn't been a bit skittish. He's jumped up on the beds and he's played with the furry mice and he lets us pet him and brush him and rub his belly. I had a hole in my heart from where Cricket died a year ago. Oliver is filling that hole now.

I am glad you managed to get another cat to help heal. I hope someday we have cats again.

@looeyville Pleased for the 3 of you. Does this mean I have to acquiesce to my wife’s desire to replace the cat that we lost a year ago?

What a lovely looking cat he is. He is a big boy, isn't he? It sounds like he has already decided that you and your hubby belong to him. Pet him, brush him, rub his belly, awesome.

That is exciting! You did a good thing. He's really cute and you might have him for a good long time if you are lucky! He's a big boy .bigger than Nico who is no lightweight.

My youngest foster girl child wants to have a cat as a pet. I hope I can find a baby cat.
