About Ollie

Ollie is a rambunctious 6-month-old boy who is ready to find his forever home. He has a beautiful gray and white coat, and though he's super soft, he's still getting used to the idea of being loved. Previous experiences have left him a bit cautious, but there's a playful tornado within him just waiting to shine. Despite his enthusiasm during playtime, Ollie can be a bit rough, especially with smaller companions. His energy often leads to bunny-kicking and he might guard his resources. For this reason, he would thrive as the only pet, although he does desire playmates. Any introductions to other pets need to happen slowly and with supervision, as he tends to get overwhelmed. The right family can help Ollie blossom at his own pace, allowing him to learn that love is a gentle experience. Ollie is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and FIV/FELV negative. Get ready to welcome this charming boy into your home!
