Yes - many fond memories!
OC was a big mushy love bug. I couldn't go outside and sit on the back porch without him climbing in my lap - purring up a storm.
And he was pretty darn slick too. He and Sherbie were partners in crime. One Spring Sherbie found a bunny nest way back along the tree line, and raided it. He didn't want to hurt them - just play with them and bring them to me as a present. He methodically would get one - I'd take it away from him - and he'd go for another. It was about a 300' trek from the nest to the house, and he would put bunny down to take a rest - and then continue on. OC saw this and would wait until Sherbie put it down, then he would grab it and run into some dense shrubs with it, knowing I couldn't get to him. That stinker ate 2 of them that morning out of the 6 that Sherbie stole. I managed to raise 2 of them, but 2 more were too badly injured from Sherb's rather rough play!
