Mr. Oliver Hammond
The purpose of this blog is to be safety valve of a sort, to keep posts about my cat from overwhelming my personal blog.
Mr. Oliver Hammond, my very first pet, joined our household three days ago. We adopted him from the Humane Society. Our original plan was to adopt the Russian Blue who shared the kitten room with Oliver and five other kittens. Sadly, Seymour was not interactive at all, and he flunked his audition. Oliver was playful, sweet and charming, so he came home with us.
Oliver has been such a great cat. He is affectionate, playful, and obedient. He adjusted well to our home, after spending a day and a half in our powder room getting acclimated. He hasn't clawed the furniture, and he stopped trying to claw at the curtains immediately when we told him "No!"
I can't think of a better first pet. He is such a sweetheart.
