Arrival Story: We adopted Oliver with his brother Martin from the Humane Society. They were adorable and friendly and it was too painful to separate them. They love being together in their new home.
Oliver looks strangely similar to my parents' old Cat, C-Kitty, but is considerably less moody. We joke that maybe he is the nicer reincarnation of C-Kitty. Ollie is nuts. He is going to be the death of us.
Bio: Ollie is the sweetest, softest little kitty you will ever meet. Pat him on the head and he's purring away. He loves to cuddle and knead the covers. He usually doesn't make any noise when he talks to you, unless he is sure there is food involved, and then he has this bizarre raspy little voice. He is starting to meow more; sometimes he sounds like a dog barking.

After a long, slow deterioration and many, many health problems, we helped our little baby to the Bridge at 5pm on Wednesday, June 20, 2007. He was only a little over three years old but in his short life he brought us so much happiness.

My Peculiar Aristocratic Title: (Thanks to Merlin for the idea!)
Things I Love About My Mom: (1) She always made a spot for me on her desk, no matter how busy she was.
(2) She made up songs for me and would sing them all the time.
(3) When I went blind, she would hold me and say "it's ok, I'm right here. You're ok."
(4) She gave me and my brother a home together for nearly three wonderful years.
(5) She would feed me yogurt and let me lick it right off her finger, which is the way I like it best.
(6) She makes awesome kitty forts.
Sigh... Poor Mumsy - its been a really hard year for her. I wish I could be with her and make her feel less sad.
I've been at the Bridge for seven months now - I think it got easier for Mums for a while but then other things started going badly and then it got harder for her to miss me so much.
This is her first Christmas without me since I was adopted. That is really tough for her - I remember how we all were together at grandpawrents house for the last two. I was so scared to be in a new place, I mostly just hid the first year. I got stuck in the ceiling - twice! - and stayed in the basement mostly. The second year everyone was prepared and I didn't get a chance to get stuck in the ceiling - too bad! And I was more used to grandpawrents' house - I even came upstairs and birdwatched by the glass doors with Marty - grandmaw sent a nice picture of that to Mumsy recently, but she had to warn Mumsy that it was coming. Mums cried anyway but she was so happy to have the picture. It is still hard for her to look at pictures of me. I know that doesn't mean she loves me any less though - sometimes its just too hard for humans.
I miss you Mums, but I am not lonely or starved for presents - its a constant party at the Bridge and Xmas is OVER THE TOP! Sandy Claws is coming soon and he's going to be extra special good to all the kitties who are spending their first Xmas at the Bridge. I will try to get away from all the festivities and give Mums a secret snuggle though, just so she knows how much I love her!
