They don’t know how to be in public places.”

OUR KIX CRITTER OF THE WEEK IS OLLIE!!

Ollie was found on someone’s property, and from the moment he arrived, he showed  what a truly loving and gentle boy he is. He has a soft, affectionate nature and absolutely adores being close to people. Sit down for even a moment, and Ollie will happily curl up in your lap, purring contentedly as he settles in for cuddles. He’s a sweet, calm companion who loves attention and finds comfort in simply being near his humans.

Ollie is about two years old and is  fully vaccinated, neutered, microchipped, and has tested negative for FIV/FeLV, so he’s all prepared for a fresh start with a family of his own. With his warm personality and desire for closeness, he would make a wonderful lap cat and a loyal friend.

Ollie is ready for a safe, loving home where he can finally relax and share his gentle heart—could he be the perfect match for you? Being our KIX Critter of week Ollie's adoption fee is only $25.00!! Call ARL 641-753-9046 for more information.
