About Olive

Olive is a beautiful, and loving, nine-year-old, 7.4-pound, female four-paw-declawed petite Maine Coon-mix cat looking for a loving foster or permanent guardian. Olive is a gorgeous girl who is an easy and typically gentle companion. She prefers to be the one and only pet in your life. While she doesn't enjoy other cats or dogs, she gets along just fine with rabbits and guinea pigs! She loves snuggling in your lap and in your arms. She gives gentle kisses and likes to climb up high and look out windows. She'll even bat a toy around! She would love to go to a loving home where she can be doted on and enjoyed. We are looking for a special cat-lover who has no other cats or dogs and knows how to administer, or is willing to learn to give life-enhancing subcutaneous fluids. Olive needs to fluids to help de-tox because she is in the early stages of kidney insufficiency. She actually enjoys the process and jumps in my lap for her daily treatments. Found sitting in a cat carrier in a Wilmette alley, we don't know Olive's backstory. She was found during the heavy rains in the fall of 2017, and the carrier was filled with rain water and her urine. I can't even imagine the torment she went through. Olive can be quirky and lovable, but she also has some cattitude. She prefers when people are mindful while around her. If you walk by her too quickly and not acknowledge her, she will grab your leg with her teeth (since she has no claws). And, if you dare pet her and not fully engage �'�| like check your cell phone �'�| she might nip again. She's the cat that reminds you to be mindful of her beautiful presence. Her adoption fee of $50 benefits rescued pets and includes a generous supply of fluids and her favorite foods. To meet and possibly adopt this very special girl, please contact [email protected] She is currently living in Chicago's Andersonville neighborhood.
