Oscar is this oh SO cute resident Persian in my Vet's office. That cat has the best purrsonality EVER! This is a hospital with a big Lobby, and he hangs in there, greets everybody, comes to all the cages to check it out...
Demands scritches, and talks to you as though he was an old friend! What a great kitty!
Bugsy was so curious to come out... I bet they would be great buddies if they lived together!

Oscar is adorable. I love vet offices that have "residential" cats. My former local vet office had four cats and a dog. It makes a vet office more personal.

My vet has 3 office cats, all of them adopted from our shelter. She's the Chairman of the citizen support group for the shelter.

My vet clinic has Clinic Cats too. Rippy is a 20 year old Red Boy and has lived his whole life in the clinic. Lenny is new, brought in as a stray who had been hit by a car.

They had to amputate his front leg, he's also a gorgeous Red Boy. I heard they have another now too, but I have not met the newbie yet, but when I go I always bring some nip for Rippy and Lenny.

Rippy knows my car, and my voice. When I am at the vet if he misses me in the lobby he comes looking for me. When he hears my voice he sits outside the room I am in until someone opens the door, then he shoots in, looking for his nip treat.

He's so handsome! My vet has 2 office cats. One is very sociable, but the other one you hardly see!

LOL, Oscar is just a character! If he was a human, he would set a table and have tea with you

He just wonders around, talking, sniffing the carriers, having conversations... Coolest cat ever!

Oscar seems adorable!
We have a resident kitty at our vet, Maui. She is normally sleeping on the receptionists desk though when we come in

Aww, Oscar's so handsome! He sounds like a real character too.


My vet's office has Bob, a big, fluffy, orange boy, but he is usually napping in the back so I've only seen him a few times. They now have a new little girl named Buttercup too, she's white with a tiny bit of very pale grey on the top of her head. She's all over everything, walking across monitors (flat-screens!), papers, keyboards, etc.

Awww, he is gorgeous. My pet shop has a resident kitty, the lady lives upstairs, I love it where you go places and see resident kitties, makes the place seem much friendlier and homely.x
