About Olive

Meet Olive! She’s a remarkable momcat who faced difficult challenges after having kittens, including a prolapse. Thankfully, she received care from an emergency vet. Despite her tough start, Olive raised her own two kittens and took in six more to care for as well. What a rockstar. Olive is petite and has an adorable, youthful look, although she’s over a year old. She’s compact but never hesitates to remind you when it’s feeding time or when she wants companionship. Once an outdoor cat, Olive quickly adjusted to house life, finding great joy in being pampered. She seeks attention and loves being petted, though she’s not entirely comfortable with being picked up yet. Napping in bed or on a perch near her loved ones is her favorite activity. While she has had limited interaction with the elderly dog in her foster home, she generally keeps her distance. If you’re interested in giving Olive a loving home, please complete our application to meet her. This sweet cat is ready for her forever family!
