Berta is a gentle soul who needs time and patience to come out of her shell. She may hide or go still when she’s feeling uncertain, but in a quiet, calm home she slowly blossoms. Berta gravitates toward the coziest spots in the house—curling up in a soft blanket, sleeping under your chair, or quietly napping on the bed. She’ll watch from a distance, then tiptoe over with soft curiosity to accept gentle chin scratches, completely relaxing once she feels safe. At about a year old, Berta’s ideal environment is peaceful and low-key, without small children or high energy. She gets along well with other cats and could happily join a home with a friendly feline, or leave with her companion Ernie. Berta isn’t demanding, but she does thrive with a gentle human who lets her take things at her own pace. The reward: a quiet, sweet companion with a deeply loyal heart.
