Oliver
History and Lore
Although the subcolony Oliver resides in now is called The Loop Subcolony, it was previously named after it's two sole residents Oliver and Stardust but was changed as more cats became known in the subcolony. Oliver is a fan favorite who from day one has always been a very friendly cat. He was always seen with Stardust, who he acted very affectionately with.
Oliver at some point went missing for three weeks, which was unlike him as he was a common cat always residing in a colony that at this point in the channel was just belonging to him and Stardust, and still primarily does. With concern raising for Oliver, he miraculously returned as the Loop Feeder informed Apo that Oliver had snuck into the warehouse the subcolony was near, chasing rats and living inside for close to a month. When the employees finally found him, they noted how skinny he was. It did not take long for him to gain his weight back and be back to normal.
Oliver would primarily share this colony with his close friend and potential relative, Stardust, and at some point the two cats were the only cats here. Sadly, in 2022, Stardust would face an unknown injury that would lead to their passing, leaving Oliver on his own. Despite many other cats being introduced to the subscolony, Oliver avoids them and does not seem to like any other cats.
Personality
Oliver is very friendly with Apoinsettia, being a very vocal cat and incredibly affectionate. He regularly climbs into Apoinsettia's car in search of catnip, at times putting up a struggle and having to be physically removed. He has even been seen climbing in the passenger seat of Apo's car during a stream in which Oliver was still new. He is also known to chirp, and slide and bump into the gimbal that holds Apo's livestream phone, which either blocks footage or knocks it over. Apo is aware of this and tries to work around Oliver.
Appearance
Oliver is a white and black cat, with freckles of white fur in his black. He is a normal size and build for a cat, and considered healthy for a street cat. He has a white line in between his eyes, and black under his chin.
Some have theorized that Oliver and Stardust may be related by how they interacted with each other and have white undertones, despite not sharing overwhelmingly similar features. It's common in cat families for kittens to appear different from each other, and to further fuel debate Oliver and Stardust share a white stretch on their backs almost like a birthmark.
Relations
- Oliver can be tolerant or hostile towards the newer cats, but has only ever enjoyed the presence of Stardust making his loss ever more harder.
