Meet Burt, a heartwarming feline friend who truly deserves a chance at a loving forever home! This charming older gentleman is not just any cat; he’s a wise soul with a tale to tell. Originally a stray from Waterloo, Iowa, Burt came to Waverly Pet Rescue back in April 2016 when he was about a year old. He was soon adopted into a loving family, but alas, when human kiddos joined the picture, Burt felt overwhelmed. 🐾 Kids just weren’t his cup of catnip! So, in the interest of everyone’s happiness and safety, Burt made his way back to us—a true testament to his loving nature and resilience. Now at 10.5 years of age, Burt's experienced a bit of life's ups and downs but is ready to shine brighter than ever! He craves affection and enjoys being showered with love and gentle pets. 🥰 Picture this: Burt approaches you, tail high, purring like a little engine, and all he wants is for you to give him some chin scratches. He’s an affectionate soul who lights up around the right people. But wait! If there are young children around or a lively dog, it might be best if Burt keeps looking. He'd prefer a quieter home where he can be your best buddy, maybe even with some kind teenagers who know how to treat him with kindness! 👍 Burt gets along just fine with other mellow cats—so if you have a feline friend or two, consider introducing them slowly! He’s been neutered, is current on his vaccines, and has been given a clean bill of health from recent testing. Did you know that with good care and love, this wise furball could be around for another 10 years? That's a decade of cuddles and companionship! You see, Burt isn’t just looking for a home; he’s on a quest for a place where he can lounge like the king he is. 👑 Now, let that heart of yours open wide! Burt is waiting, and he’s ready to be your new best friend. Adoptions are serious business, so to meet this loving boy, just apply through the Buddy App. This simple step unlocks the door to a world of purrs and snuggles with Burt.
