About Fern

Fern is a lovely brown tabby who's still learning to trust people after spending her early life outdoors. Initially, she may hiss or seem frightened around new faces, but she has made great strides since moving to the cat room at the Adoption Center. Once she feels comfortable, she enjoys gentle pets and shows her affectionate side. Fern is good with other cats, enjoying playtime as long as they respect her space. This timid girl is looking for a quiet home where a patient adopter can help her gain confidence. Kids might be too overwhelming for her, so she would thrive best in an adult-only environment. Give Fern the home and love she needs to continue blossoming. Your new best friend is just one click away.
