Bart has come a long way from his rough start, arriving not even a pound and wary of people. His progress speaks for itself: patient handling has encouraged him to enjoy gentle pets, and on his more confident days, he’ll curl up in a lap. He’s still on the shy side, but he does best with someone who’s willing to give him time and space to adjust at his own pace. Bart is a quiet presence, thriving with other cats and even getting along with the resident dog. In fact, he lights up most when he’s in the company of other animals, making him a great fit as a barn cat or working kitty, especially in a home with fellow felines. Short gray and white fur and tuxedo markings add to his handsome, understated look. Adopters will need to bring patience and kindness, and Bart will reward that with trust and affection in his own quiet way. Give him a gentle environment and he’ll find his place.
