A Tale Of Two Kitties

We have a new long-term visitor. Her name is Ollie and she is a very fluffy semi-flat faced cat. She actually belongs to Carli.

When Carli et al moved in to their small, but brand new apartment complex a while ago they naturally brought Ollie with them. Other tenants appeared to have cats too as there were always a few milling about. But that all came to a screeching halt when management wrote all the tenants a letter basically stating that cats were against the contract and anyone caught with one would be evicted.

So we now have a big fat fluffy kitty named Ollie. She'll be with us until #1: we move out of town; or #2: Carli is able to buy her own home.

It took Ollie a while to come around, but she knows where the food is. She gets on fine with the dogs but she does not like Kneadermeier and Kneadermeier does not like her. They are finally beginning to tolerate each other, but only so much.

My husband was just beginning to barely accept her when one night I forgot to put her out and she managed to kill one of our finches. From then on she became an outside only kitty, though she does keep trying to come in.

Ollie before she was banished to outdoor only status.

Meanwhile Kneadermeier continues to enjoy her status as Top Cat.
