Oliver has heaps of personality but at the same time is calm, easygoing and affectionate. Since picking him up from the pound less than a week ago he was put in with another cat and then put in with a kitten as she was missing her best mate who was just rehomed. He has been great with both cats and let the little kitten snuggle up to him on the very first night. Oliver has been introduced to one of my dogs and although I don't think he has been around them too much he isn't that fazed about them either. I will have him spend more time with my dogs before he goes. He has had my 4 year old daughter carrying him around and playing with him and he just flops in her arms. So would definately be fine with cat friendly children. Oliver is just a real no fuss boy looking for a loving home to call his own. He is the sort of cat that would really suit anyone as he is just so easy to get along with.
