About Bruin

Bruin, affectionately known as "Little Bug," is a lively four-year-old cat who has transitioned from stray life to a cozy foster home. Although he was once a colony cat, he’s become a friendly companion who loves the company of other cats. While he enjoys his playtime, his playful nature means he might not be the best fit for homes with young kids, as he can get a bit wild during games. Bruin has a delightful personality; he purrs non-stop and is often found making little biscuits with his paws. Interestingly, while he's lived outdoors for most of his life, he isn’t fond of looking out the window. Instead, he prefers to stay by his foster’s side, looking for opportunities to chase his favorite mouse toy. Bruin would thrive in a home with another cat to bond with, as he truly loves feline friends. He may need some time to adjust, and his foster is ready to assist with this transition using the Socialization Saves Lives Method. If you're looking for a companion cat who can bring some joy and fun to your home, Bruin is your guy. He’s eagerly waiting for his Forever Home!
