About Oliver

Oliver is a charming Norwegian Forest Cat who brings a sweet, curious spirit to his future home. At 6.5 years old, he’s a neutered male known for being calm and social. While he enjoys brief moments of play and has a fondness for catnip, he thrives in a peaceful environment, feeling safest when it’s just him and his humans. Oliver has some medical needs; having lost most of his teeth and currently managing FIV, he requires regular veterinary care. Short interactions and cuddles suit him well, and he loves to be brushed to maintain his fluffy coat. Oliver would prefer a home without dogs or other cats as he can be shy around them. He has been great with children and enjoys their company. This gentle giant is ready to be your one and only best friend in a cozy forever home where he can truly shine.
