It's Caturday!

Welcome back for another edition of Caturday, where we catch up on the week's latest cat news, and get to meet some of your amazing kitties!

This week, Cee Lo Green introduced the world to his Purrfect pussycat, cat shaped pizza rocked the catosphere, a game crashing tabby became a Twitter sensation, Shironeko debuted his life-sized plush, we explored Tokyo's Calico Cat Cafe, met Murkin, the kitten loving pup, got caught up in China's cat currency controversy, dug up a vintage copy of Catmopolitan Magazine, gave Charlie's favorite box an extreme home makeover, and virtually interacted with the foster kitties of the Friskies Plus Playhouse!

Also, I started pinning my little heart out on Pinterest, so if you're a member, please feel free to connect with me here!

Ollie

This week's featured feline is a handsome orange boy with big golden eyes, who stole his mama's heart right from the start!

"I would like you to meet Oliver aka Ollie. He is going to be two on St. Patrick's Day. He was adopted from the SPCA, after being there for all of three hours. He had come in from a foster home the morning of May 19, 2010. The room was empty, but the moment he heard voices, well mine, he went to town trying to get my attention. He climbed the cage door yelling his orange head off - I can just imagine what he was saying: "Are you my mom? Take me out of here, now!" LOL.

His two sisters were sitting in the back of the cage in their litter box; Poor things. He was impossible to ignore - besides I have a weakness for orange cats. He was put into my arms and clung like velcro. I wanted to see his face, but no, he wanted to snuggle. I loved him already.

Ollie had been a tiny terror, a little thief, and a comedian. The terror part has subsided now that he is almost two. His favorite activity is stealing anything he can carry. The other day I found one of my lipsticks in my boot (I was wondering what the heck was in there as I was struggling to put it on..)

He is a nonstop talker, and he likes playing with water in the sink (I have a video clip on Catster of Ollie in the sink getting very wet).

He loves his brothers, Milo and Teddy Bearz, but he likes hanging with Mom the best. He is my little supervisor. Whatever I am doing - cleaning the house, making the bed, cooking - Ollie is always underfoot! And I wouldn't have it any other way."

Special thanks to Eva for sharing her beloved bundle of fur with us this week! If your kitty would like to befriend Ollie on Catster, you can check out his profile here!
