Looking for a forever home; Penticton SPCA pet of the week

He may be a little shy at first, but one-year-old Oliver loves attention.

In the shelter after being left behind in a home, Oliver has an adorable meow.

"He is a little shy in the shelter, but once you start petting him he purrs and rolls around. We don't know how he is with other animals, but we know that with people he is as gentle as can be," said Holly with the South Okanagan-Similkameen SPCA. "Come in and meet Oliver and give him the home he deserves."

For more information about Oliver and other animals available for adoption, visit the South Okanagan-Similkameen SPCA online.
