Message from Owner

Hi, this is Oliver. He’s a fat, orange kitty who we believe got out @ Turlington Oak apts; closer to the main office. He is blind in one eye and has arthritis from an old injury and sometimes walks/hops with a limp. He is super loved and we’ve been outside on and off for days calling his name and shaking food. We’ve contacted shelters and animal control. He has only gotten out one other time before and went to the wrong door to come in 🤦‍♀️ but meowed instantly after calling his name a couple times. He’s a big mama’s boy. We are extremely worried for his safety as he has been strictly an indoor kitty for 2 years now, he is getting old (10 years) and has health conditions. My oldest child grew up with him as they are the same age so we have had him for quite some time. My youngest is beside themselves and completely dysregulated by this. We really want him and will do anything to do so. He cannot jump very well and will usually claw his way up on things. No collar and I can’t recall if he’s chipped or not but am contacting the registry today. If you meow, he usually meows back. He might fight you in you pick him up but hold him with both arms under his belly and he can’t move/fight well lol He’s very sweet and approachable. Loves chicken and tuna. Will bite if scratched by butt but it’s not hard he knows how to hold back and will never hurt anyone. His favorite spot is his cheeks and side of his neck. Please help bring our baby !
