Olive always is surprising us. When she was abandoned by our neighbor, she not only lost her hooman, the other cat, but also the dog that had recently died as well. Her family was gone and she sat around looking lost in the yard. That night, I thought I would go and pet her and see if she wanted to come and live on our side of the fence. While Randall went to go play Playstation VR for 15 min, I went to go make a friend. I went into the yard and sat on the concrete to see if she wanted me to pet her. She came right up and purred her little heart out, and kept trying to climb closer to my face. I was pretty uncomfortable, and she kept acting like she wanted to be held. So I picked her up and she just settled in my arms, purring louder. I slowly walked to our yard so I could sit comfortably in a chair. 15 min later Randall found us like this, with Olive asleep in my arms.
This started a few-week long tradition of me sitting in the chair at night and her leaping into my arms to go to sleep. Kind of breaks my heart that two families rejected this gentle little love-bug.
