At 7 years old, Fern is a gentle, soft-hearted girl ready to settle into a calm and loving home of her own. She's the kind of cat who thrives in peaceful spaces and would do best with other mellow, easygoing feline friends. Fern can be a little shy when you first meet her, but give her a moment and you'll see her blossom. Once she feels safe, she leans into affection and enjoys quiet companionship by your side. In the past, Fern developed a small bald patch on her hind end from overgrooming during times of stress. The good news is that with a calm environment and consistent care, this has improved and is now well managed. Fern is looking for someone patient and kind, someone who understands that the sweetest connections take a little time. In return, she'll be a loving, gentle presence in your home.
