About Oliver Fish
Meet Oliver Fish, a 20-pound panleukopenia survivor with a big heart and energy to match his size. He’s a former diabetic who is currently in remission—his adopter must know that diabetes could return at any point. Weight management is key for Oliver, and he's already started slimming down with support from ARF, but keeping up that progress will need to be a top priority at home. Obesity could trigger a relapse, so whoever takes him home must be committed to a slow and steady weight loss plan. Oliver doesn’t skimp on affection. He’s the type who leans in for every pet and aims to be right by your side. He wants an adopter who’s equally dedicated to both his health and his need for attention, and he’ll happily curl up with you after a long day. Fun fact: Oliver was born October 13, which makes him a Libra—no surprise for a cat who thrives on love and balance. They are ready to love you; are you ready to apply?
