For The Love Of Olivia….Day Two Hundred, Ninety Nine

September 25, 2011 By Jodi

We interrupt our regularly scheduled dogcast for this special announcement.

Today I want to stray from my traditional blog about my dogs, in order to introduce you to Olivia.

This sweet little girl was found outside in the pouring rain with a litter of kittens.  Extremely emaciated with an abscess on her back, this brave little mama wouldn’t abandon her kittens.

Somehow Olivia found her way to Our Companions; where she was treated for her abscess and then spayed.

Today Olivia, went to her forever home with my daughter Lynn and her husband Mark along with their other cat Ollie.

This afternoon I had the opportunity to spend some time with Olivia.  I found her to be friendly, outgoing, sweet and loving.  I’m so happy that Olivia’s story has a happy ending.

There are so many lessons to be learned from our furry friends not the least is the joy experienced by opening your heart and your home to those less fortunate than us.

    Do you have a kitty, Frankie? How do you react to cats?

    What a sweetie! So glad your daughter adopted her, and I hope she and Ollie become best buds!!

      We are hoping so too. So far Ollie is just hissing at her. Olivia is confined to one room for at least a week, but since she has a window she is content to stay there.

    Olivia has some very lovely whiskers. I can see why your daughter fell in love with her.

    As we contemplate adopting a second cat, my biggest concern is whether or not our current cat would enjoy having a sibling. I hope Olivia and Ollie are not struggling to get along.

      Olivia is supposed to stay in her own room while the cats get use to each others scents.

      It is hard Kristine, that’s why we got Delilah because I thought Sampson needed a companion. 😉

    What a beauty. I hope Ollie and Olivia get used to each other soon.

      LOL yes, I can’t imagine how long she will be happy to stay in that room!
