Meet Oliver, northern 小蓝视频's favourite garden cat

Five dollars of every $20 calendar sold聽will be donated to Into the Woods Animal Rescue.

If you've ever been to Hillside Garden Co. in Dawson Creek, you've likely met the friendly and furry face of Oliver, a tabby famous for lounging around the shop, finding warm or sunny spots to nap, and greeting customers. 

This holiday season, Hillside has created a 2024 calendar of Oliver, with various shots of the feline at the shop, laying in boxes, stretching by plants, and so on. Five dollars of every $20 calendar sold will be donated to Into the Woods Animal Rescue.

Oliver is six or seven years old, and an SPCA rescue himself, says Reid Leer, who helps her mother Dawn run Hillside. The calendar was requested by patrons of the shop, as residents are big fans of Oliver, a much beloved fixture at the greenhouse. 

"He's also very photogenic - he's the town's celebrity," said Leer, noting Oliver is a skilled mouse catcher in addition to being a cute face. 

Summer is Oliver's favourite season at the garden shop, added Leer, though sometimes he does need a break from all the attention. Winter is a little more chill and provides the opportunity to nap on a warm office chair or by a heat vent. 

"He's a character. He likes to be petted, until he doesn't," Leer said.

Calendars are available on a first-come, first-serve basis, until they run out, but more could be printed if enough people are interested, added Leer.
