My name is Olive!

Olive is a social cat that wants you to play and talk with her. She is smart and has learned to sit, high five, and pivot in exchange for a treat. She likes sitting next to you but does not like to cuddle. She does not like strangers or being left alone for too long. She also does not do well if you travel even when you get a pet sitter she’s familiar with. She does have a couple of health problems, feline herpesvirus, which is under control with food and a supplement. This virus is not contagious to dogs or humans but it is to other cats so she would need to be in a home where she’s the only cat. Unfortunately our home is not the best fit for her. We took her in after a friend moved. She thought she would do well with us but because we have teenagers and a busy family life she has started to exhibit some behavioral issues. She will use her litter box just fine but if we leave for a trip or our kids friends sleep over she will go outside her box.
