Adopt Oliver (Texas Only) a Domestic Shorthair / Mixed cat in Hartford

Location:

Hartford, CT

Description:

Meet Oliver! Oliver was a stray cat who has been coming to eat at his now foster's house with the other feral cats for about 2 or 3 years. He is a gorgeous gentle giant weighing 15 lbs. He loves attention from people and has never acted feral so we have always suspected he at one time had a home. He showed up at their house on Easter with a swollen face from an infected injury and has been recovering and soaking up all the love and attention since. He can be stubborn and will let you know immediately when he doesn't like something so an experienced cat home or potentially a home without very young children would be best. With that being said he loves people of all ages and has enjoyed attention from the 8 & 10 year olds in his foster home. We have not tested him with dogs just yet but will be introducing him to our cat friendly dog soon to see how he does so stay tuned! He has the best purr, the sweetest meow, and a giant squishy face. He frequently can be found in his favorite spot, the bed, splooting and loves to be pet. He is still learning how to play with toys but has discovered catnip and he's a huge fan. Oliver was king of his little cat colony and not only co-existed with both male and female cats, but they observed him caring for others in his colony, particularly a partially blind senior male who he would guide to our house so he could eat multiple times a day. He has missed the social community he had and we are hoping that he can find that again in a new home. Unfortunately Oliver was diagnosed with FIV, but given his temperament and previous lifestyle, he could be a great addition in the right household with other social cats. In every other respect he is healthy and could live a full life. Oliver stole our hearts with his beautiful green eyes and sweet, affectionate personality and we know his adventures as a loved indoor kitty are just beginning. Apply to adopt Oliver from his foster home on our website at charmingpetrescue.orgIMPORTANT: Please read all below, especially if you live outside of Texas, which is where our rescue is located.Apply to adopt on our website: https://www.charmingpetrescue.org/adoptAll of our animals are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date on shots.ALL of our animals are located in Boerne, TX, but transport after adoption is available to other states for a $300 fee for dogs or an additional fee varying by location for cats. If you are seeing our pets posted in your state, that's because you live near a transport stop, they are not currently at that location. Petfinder lists our pets as ''Out of Town'' pets at other locations, and Adopt-a-Pet lists our location as a Transport stop. Those are currently the only options they offer to make this clear, so we put this description we've put at the bottom to explain it. You can read more about transport here: www.charmingpetrescue.org/transportWe understand transport is not an option for everyone, but we offer it at the cost we pay the transport company for those who wish to adopt from us.
