I tried to leave a comment but it doesn't seem to be working. First nothing, then telling me the field "can't be blank." Just wanted to send a little Oliver love back his way! :-)
Oliver, I hear you purr your such a happy heart! Sharing love where ever you go is so easy for you! I wonder what your dreaming right now? I guess what really matters is that you are sooo loved! nitey nite love tweedles
Oh dear Oliver you are a delightful cat among cats and have many admirers. Sleep peacefully but keep dreaming the dreams of mice, bugs and all good things you love to chase! If you ever want/need a new home, you have one here with the Cats of Lakeview Point.

Contentment is not the fulfillment of what we want,
but the realization of how much we already have.
Where we love is home - home that our feet may leave, but not our hearts.

Now winter nights enlarge
This number of their hours;
And clouds their storms discharge
Upon the airy towers.
Let now the chimneys blaze
And cups o'erflow with wine,
Let well-tuned words amaze
With harmony divine...

Like to jes' git out and rest,
And not work at nothin' else!"

“Do all the good you can,

To all the people you can,
As long as ever you can.”

Man's Testament.
Question not, but live and Labour Till yon goal be won, Helping every feeble neighbour, Seeking help from none; Life is mostly froth and bubble, Two things stand like stone, Kindness in another's trouble, Courage in your own.

I'm a lover of old. Time-worn, antiques, quilts, primitives, heirloom pieces, potting sheds, English literature, poetry, Battenburg lace, blue willow, cottages, white ironstone dishes, English transferware, worn-out picket fences, teapots, old bird houses, moss-covered clay pots, gardening, all creatures great and small.

Oh, how adorable. "Hi Oliver"
Yes, please do put the kettle on...I'll be there by 3 :)
Oliver is truly a LOVE... so sweet and i get dog hairs in my mouth when I kiss the dogs on top of their heads, but no whiskers, yet.
He is such a beautiful cat, and he moves around on little cat feet, apparently. Sweet!
