Meet Bernard, a charming little guy born under the starry skies of November 5, 2022! 🎉 Can you imagine this sweet soul found hiding under a bridge? How heartbreaking! 😢 But let’s not dwell on the past, because Bernard has turned a new leaf! After being rescued in fall 2023, he arrived at the shelter absolutely shivering—hungry, scared, and nervous. But oh, how he has blossomed! 🌟 Now, he’s full of life, joy, and a playful spirit! 🐾 Bernard is all about good vibes; he loves to romp around and play to his heart's content. Playful? Check! Affectionate? Yes, but here’s the twist: he’s not too keen on being picked up. But that’s okay! Recognizing his independent nature is part of the love! ❤️ It seems he was once a house cat who thrived on social interactions, making him a gentle companion, especially around people and other feline friends. So, if you are ready to bring a delightful energy into your home with a dash of character, Bernard is your guy! This beautiful heart awaits a loving family who will appreciate his quirky charm.
