Oliver

Please feel free to add a personal note about Oliver...

Joan, 19 July 2003

Oliver was my "boyfriend" and "playmate" who became quite the flirt when I came for a visit. We spent quite a lot of time on the floor being "cats" together. Oliver was a cat who knew what he wanted and let you know it. I admired that in him. He also went along with whatever hand he was dealt and seemed to be okay with whatever was going on as long as he felt he was included. I will miss his greeting me ("ack!")and petting his fuzzy head. He was a sweet old man.

Although I didn't get to see much of Oliver in his later years, I was the first in our family to lay eyes on him. He was very dirty and very cute. I named him "Oliver" because he looked like an orphan turned lucky. Joan liked the name and it stuck. While Joan and Pattie gave him a good bath and I noticed many tiny black specs in the sink. They told me that they were fleas. I had to go downstairs and eat pizza during Oliver 's discomfort. That was our first moment as a "family." I will miss him.

Oliver was the prettiest kitten. He loved to play with just a piece of string. As he grew he became more "skittish" (if there is such a word), and would always hide when we came into the house. I could always find him because, even if he tried to hide, his tail would show under the sofa or under the curtains. He was a great joy to Joan, and even when he walked along her face in the morning to let her know it was time to get up, or time to feed him she didn't mind. He will be missed!
