I have hardly any cat characters at all. Cats just... Don't match my style in some way, and I never found one that truly called to me, one that had the perfect amount of naturalism and beauty and just pure awesomeness. And then, I found Ollie. He's absolutely adorable. I love the coloration and markings on him, stripes are a certain favorite of mine and I have a great weakness for them. Plus his eyes are just amazing, while some people might see them as plain green eyes, I see small marbles reflecting a sparky, upbeat personality. This at, Ollie, is the first cat that has ever caught my attention and kept it. I couldn't stop looking back and forth at him. So, I thought I might try to submit a form and see if he could become mine. While the likelihood may be slim, I can still always try and perhaps even earn such a gorgeous character.
I want to use him in the story I am preparing, the one with Ajax, Jack, and Ushin. Just because it's mostly dogs doesn't mean that the cat can't join. I also want to make art of him and increase my skill, not to mention purchasing art of him from other places. My character website, which will be built rather soon, is where he will have his home.

Attributes:
Like the crab, you bear a hard protective shell on the outside, which shelters a sensitivity. Outwardly, you give the impression of self-assurance and confidence, but inside you crave security and love. And whether you show it or not, you have an undeniable sensitivity which is especially influenced by kindness, consideration and sympathy. You also fear criticism and ridicule. Often your self-consciousness is your undoing. Despite the fact that you may tend to be shy, you love publicity and glory.

Theme Song:
Big Bang Two by Chameleon Circuit
I see this song as fitting to Ollie's smart and chatterbox personality. It is a fast pace song about a particularly confusing episode of Doctor Who, one of my favorite shows on this side of the Universe and beyond. Listening to it while I worked on Ollie's form, I saw a similarity between the mood in the song and Ollie's personality, which is why I picked this as his theme song. If you listen to the song and look at Ollie's picture, imagine him saying the song really fast, and you'll see what I mean.
Likes:
Ollie's likes will be ordered from his beloved likes to his likes, but not as much. His most favorites will have five stars((*****)) and it will go on from there for his likes.
Doctor Who
{{*****}}
Ollie's favorite show and topic when it comes to discussions is Doctor Who. He truly and greatly favors the topic and enjoys discussing with other people about it. His favorite Doctor was David Tennant, or the Tenth Doctor to fans. Ollie is known as a Whovian, or a fan of Doctor Who.
Science!
{{*****}}
Ollie absolutely loves science. He gladly does experiments and figures out equations to help out with things. His enjoyment of science can make him annoying, though, since that's the only thing other than Doctor Who that Ollie can talk for hours about.
Exploration
{{****}}
Exploring and discoveries are something Ollie can certainly enjoy quite a bit. He, being a feline and a brainiac, can be quite curious and wondering, so exploring presents a way for Ollie to quench the need to know. He likes to explore all sorts of things, including trash cans.
Chameleon Circuit
{{****}}
Chameleon Circuit is a band that creates songs about Doctor Who, which is a reason it is well up there on Ollie's list of likes. Once when he was young, he found an abandoned IPod filled with Chameleon Circuit songs, why he loves them. Ollie uses their songs to help him think.
Wandering
{{***}}
Some might believe that wandering is basically exploring, but not to Ollie. Wandering to him is travelling unknown territories without a true sense of curiosity. Oddly, Ollie enjoys doing it, and finds himself wandering every other day. It gives him time to think about other things.
Dislikes:
Ollie's dislikes will be ordered from his most hated to the somewhat hated, but not as much. His least favorites will have five stars((*****)) and it will go on from there for his dislikes.
Other Cats
{{*****}}
Although most cats are somewhat social and can tolerate each other, Ollie cannot. He refuses to do so at any given time. Being social with cats is something he absolutely detests, and refuses to do. This is because he was not properly socialized as a kitten and only saw the bad side of other cats.
Cheeses
{{*****}}
Ollie. Hates. Cheese. He considers it his worst nemesis. Cheese to Ollie is a massive block of doom and destruction set on ruining him and his family. He doesn't even know the true reason why he hates cheese so much, but he still despises it greatly anyway.
Mice
{{****}}
Yes, I realize that people expect cats to love playing with and eating mice and rats. Well not Ollie, he despises rodents of all types. They both creep him out, and are an annoyance to him. Ollie thinks of rodents as creepy little balls of wild fur and evil eyes and teeth ready to eat his brains.
Idiots
{{***}}
Ollie can only somewhat tolerate people not as smart as him. He's rather smart and mature, so people who are opposite that are disliked by the clever cat. He thinks of them as people there to ruin his works and demolish his scientific reasonings, and often avoids people of low intelligence.

Personality:
Brainiac
Ollie is very smart, and he knows it. To him, life is one big equation that is missing one variable to unlock all of it's mysteries and secrets. Ollie finds interest and enjoyment in studying things and thinking out problems and various other things. One of his top interests is science, as he loves studying things and discovering the way they work, especially with things like cells and other small, mysterious pieces of life.
Brave
Despite the fact Ollie is really smart, he's also really brave. While most brains are expected to wear thin, tapered off glasses and grow fearful of the dumbest things, Ollie is quite the opposite. He is rather good looking, despite what people would think, and he is very brave. Ollie has confronted large, mangy, hungry, vicious stray dogs and scared them off, not thinking or particularly caring for his own safety and life. He's just that brave.
Thoughtful
Ollie loves to... Well... Think. Sitting on trash cans in his old home and thinking for long periods of time was something he did rather often, and enjoyed just as much. His thoughts were clouded sometimes with tales of his past, or sometimes, questions that surfaced about the keys of life and how to commit to time travel. Ollie is very smart and clever because of how much he thinks, and how he thinks.
Careful
Ollie is very careful about what he does. To him, one misstep or error is the difference between perfection and disaster, especially when it comes to experiments. He judges each of his actions and movements carefully, using a scientific method he made up to help him think straight and perfect. Ollie isn't exaggerating when he says he always plans out every little detail of every single experiment, he's telling the truth about how careful he is.
Curious
As with every smart alleck and with every cat, Ollie is undyingly curious about absolutely everything. He paws at absolutely everything, trying to figure out what it is. The best thing for him though, is that he has the brains and the guts to continue exploring and to know what things are to quench the reserves of curiosity inside of him. Ollie learns greatly from his curious adventures. It's to say that "Curiosity Killed the Cat" is a very false statement.
Chatterbox
Ollie loves to talk. He could go on for hours explaining a particularly complicated problem, and sometimes goes a few days with friends discussing the most recent discoveries in science and technology. He has a very capable and silky voice, which makes people allow him to talk for long periods of time. Sometimes when he speaks, he uses his paws to animate what he is speaking of. No matter what he does with it, Ollie will always be talking, as cats are often loudmouths.
Rare/Hidden Personalities:
Attention Seeker
Ollie hates to admit it, but he seeks attention. Even if humans don't appreciate his amazing singing and his love of prancing along their fences while he sings, he'll still do it. Mostly other cats appreciate his seeking of attention, often taking longer than two seconds to leave or grow annoyed. Ollie does seek attention, even though he hates that fact. He sometimes even resorts to going to science seminars just to get people to listen to him.
History/Background:
Life of an Ollie(Alley) Cat
"Someone is missing.. The question is whoo..."
I loved that song. Every day it played in my head. I felt it represented what other people thought of me; Smart, confusing, and a fast talker. In truth, I was thought of as just another ally cat. Of course, not just any ally cat. I was the Ollie Cat.
When I was a kitten, I was also a runt. A handsome, dashing young runt. my father didn't like me one little bit, nope, but I sure loved myself. Being so small made life a bit easier when it came to maneuvering the maze of trash cans near where we lived. My brothers and sisters had a lot of trouble traversing the smallest passages, but I shot through them without trying to squeeze through.
Growing up, I was even more amazing. Sure, I was still particularly small, and I wasn't the most noticeable cat in the alley, but I was still amazing. I grew up clever, as if I had swallowed brain juice and became super smart. Although I didn't. I just was super smart. I was clever, and a jerk about it. I guess I still am in a way, for life hasn't treated me well so I don't see why I can't be a smart aleck jerk right back at it. I saw it rather fitting to throw people's words back at them, and to prove them infinitely wrong. Tee hee hee.... It was very fun, I'd say.
Ah, moving on, yes. When I was about six months old, I was incredible. Smart, quirky, clever, and that's when I discovered it. Oh, the most amazing thing I've ever encountered or enjoyed! The name was simple, intriguing, and infinitely amazing. Doctor. Who. Two simple words, put together to create the most amazing thing in the universe. I was impossibly hooked first time I caught a glimpse of the deep, almost navy blue TARDIS rolling about through space attempting to arrive where the Doctor wanted it. My eyes just widened, staring, loving. I watched the show through an old television set that was never bought at a store, where appliances of varying types were sold. It was an amazing experience for me, and I still watch the show, though not through the television. That broke about a month ago.
Then at 7 months, I discovered a new, even more amazing thing. A band, an amazing band, awesome in every way. Their name was... Odd. Like me! Chameleon Circuit. The name to me is so beautiful... So easy to say and kind to your mouth, I loved it. Chameleon Circuit, Chameleon Circuit, Chameleon Circuit! That wasn't the only thing I loved about the band. I adored their songs more than anything else I've adored before, set aside Doctor Who. The reason I loved them so much was because they wrote and performed songs about Doctor Who. All sorts of songs, representing episodes, feelings, even the Doctor's ability to regenerate his body. I was ecstatic about the songs. I felt they described me in such a way, I couldn't describe how they described it. Another unexplainable issue, that I'll find time to address later in my schedule.
This cat is.... strange. He's different. Such an odd childhood. Keep him under surveillance, while he tells his history. I want to know more about this mysterious... "Ollie Cat"
There comes a time in a cat's life where he must leave his parents and live alone. I was already living alone. Alone is how I loved it. Despite the fact I'm slightly unnerved about being on my own, I found a way to fix that. Singing. Singing gave me the chance to speak to myself without feeling uncomfortable. Wouldn't it be weird if I were just some cat who talked to himself? Very, I'd say. Instead I sing to myself about my life. I think I'm a pretty good singer, and sometimes I got a small audience as an eight month old. Often though, they included people with a shoe or other, heavy yet small object, and I was interrupted constantly through my serenade. I still enjoyed it though, and dodging thrown projectiles was an excellent game and a great way to keep up my strength.
Not much after that, save a few important things that I will NOT be telling you. After eight months I pretty much grew up doing all of the above, listening to Chameleon Circuit, watching Doctor Who, singing, all that kind of stuff. Yeah, not so exciting now is it? Whatever. I have to catch my show, so see you around.
'Where does he watch his show?'
"The Corner Store, sir. Akin Televisions"
'Find him. I want to know the rest of it. The important things.'
"Aye, sir."
Ollie sat outside Akin Televisions, laughing gallantly at the show playing before him. The man who owned the store, an older, heavy-set man named Joe Akin, watched the cat with incredible curiosity. It appeared at 5:00 PM everyday, and watched it open mouthed, yowling at the television like it was laughing. He was accustomed to it appearing and allowed the alley cat its time, since it very much seemed to enjoy the television. With a shrug, Akins disappeared into the backroom, kicking his,legs up on a table and watching football. The cat would be fine, no need to stare at it. It hadn't damaged the televisions yet.
A loud noise outside aroused Joe's attention. He raced to the door, to see the cat fighting. This was odd, as normally the cat avoided other felines. He watched as a huge, black cat attacked the little copper one. "Get your paws off that cat!" He snapped, grabbing a broom and rushing outside, swinging it back and forth. The black cat fled, and the copper one yowled at its direction, turning to Akins and rubbing against him lovingly.
Ollie liked this man, the television man. He was strong, burly, and defensive of him. Despite the fact the two never had much contact with each other, they had a mutual relationship and protected each other. Ollie felt safe near the television store, but when Akins invited him in he shied away. It was too soon. Ollie took off into the alley way, and disappeared down its shadows. Akins returned to his television.
