Gertrude is a sweet, laid-back girl who has left most of the drama behind. She enjoys being around people, but she's not demanding about it. She's happy to nap nearby, keep you company while you go about your day, and quietly settle into the rhythm of a home. During the day, she tends to blend into the background. Not because she's shy, but because she's content. Give her a cozy spot to relax and she's perfectly happy. By nighttime, though, she often finds her way to the foot of the bed, where she takes her foot-warmer responsibilities very seriously. There is something especially endearing about Gertrude. Maybe it's her gentle nature, or maybe it's knowing that despite everything life has thrown at her, she remains trusting, affectionate, and hopeful. What she wants now is simple: a safe place to land and people who are happy to share their couch, their home, and the occasional chin scratch. After everything she's been through, that seems like a pretty reasonable request.
