About Bert

Bert is a sweet and gentle soul looking for his forever home. This calm, adult male tabby mix has a soft orange coat and is truly a joy to have around. He thrives in a stable environment, especially with older, calm children who treat him kindly. Bert enjoys quiet moments, often finding a cozy corner in the house to settle down, like his foster mom's closet. He's getting along well with others in his foster home, including two resident cats and a dog who took to him right away. While he's playful at times, his temperament is largely calm and a bit timid, so a peaceful household would be ideal for him. His litter box training is spot on, and he’s ready to find a family to love him. Bert can transition to an adoptive home after his dentistry appointment on October 29th. What are you waiting for?
