Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Olive, a lovely senior gal who, at 14 years young, still greets each day with playful curiosity and a gentle purr. Despite her tough start—abandoned on the street not once but twice—she has flourished into a sweet and resilient companion. She eats and drinks like a champ, enjoys long, peaceful naps curled up in her favorite cozy bed, and bounces back to life whenever she spots a cat wand. Her soft, expressive eyes will follow you around the room, and every so often she’ll let out a tiny, hopeful meow just to say, “Let’s play!”
Her heart is as big as her spirit. Though she takes medication twice daily to manage hyperthyroidism and history of occasional mini-seizures, she never lets it slow her down or dampen her delightful temperament—she’s never once bitten or scratched, only showered her fosters with calm affection. This gentle lady is looking for a loving forever home where her quiet grace, playful moments, and unwavering loyalty will be cherished. If you’re ready to open your heart to a sweet senior who has already overcome so much, she’d love nothing more than to be your new best friend!
