The Times Advocate, 2006-09-27, Page 21Wednesday, September 27, 2006 TIMES—ADVOCATE 21 Announcements/Community PET ADOPTION BULLETIN Huron OSPCA (Ontario Humane Society) OLIVER Despite having a few battle scars, Oliver is a lover, not a fighter. Oliver is extremely affectionate and loves to be held and cuddled. He was found as a stray in Goderich and came to us after he went unclaimed at the pound. Oliver tolerates cats that are friendly to him, but will fight back if cornered by another cat, especially a male. He is a young male, probably between 1 and 2 years old, and has been neutered. As you can see by his photo, Oliver is a relaxed and happy boy.
