A Stray Cat Followed Me Home | Meet Ollie the Cat

Hi Friends! I was on my way home on Sunday when this cute cat followed me back home from my car. It was freezing outside, so I decided to let him in for the night. I gave him food, water, and a safe place to sleep in. The following day, I let him back outside to see if he could find his way home (walked around the neighborhood with him for 30 minutes). He ended up just following me back to the house. Afterwards I brought him to the vet to check for a microchip and get a checkup to see if he's healthy. He did not have a microchip sadly. After going through the necessary steps to determine if he was someones lost cat (checked for microchip, asked/went around the neighborhood, checked/used social media/Nextdoor app - the neighborhood app where people in our neighborhood post news/missing pets, and consulted the Vet), we have determined that he was an outside stray. He was not neutered, had a lot of fleas on him, multiple scars, and also had one large wound on his tail. He was also not litter box trained. Additionally, he was also spraying his urine (marking his territory) all throughout my house which indicated he was not an indoor cat (male cats marking their territory has a really strong putrid odor that most people cannot stand - it’s different than normal urine) It would have also (in my opinion) been irresponsible to leave an outdoor male cat not neutered if he did have an owner. REMEMBER, This very short 5 minute video and description do not cover everything that I’ve done/everything that has happened. I made this video not expecting this many people to have watched it, so I didn’t include all the details or explain everything clearly. Even the description doesn’t encompass everything because it’s difficult to put 2+ months worth of information all into X amount of words. So please be respectful while commenting and don’t jump to any conclusions. I have no cruel or malicious intentions, and only want the best for Ollie. Additionally, I do understand what it’s like to lose a pet, and I do think of my pets as family. So I understand the concern people may have. As of right now, I am keeping him! He has been administered all his shots, given flea medication, and has just been neutered! I will give him as much love as he will take, and provide a safe home and environment for him 😁 Here's an update video on Ollie if you guys are interested:    • 20 Fun Facts about Ollie + Update | Stray ...   If you liked the video, please show some support and press the like button.
