About Bruce

Bruce, also known as Brucey, is a distinguished gentleman with a serious demeanor and a deep purr that evokes the essence of a panther lounging comfortably. After retiring from a life outdoors, he’s ready to indulge in the comforts of indoor living. Brucey has an easygoing nature and gets along well with his foster cat siblings, embodying the wise elder of the group. This charming fellow loves treats and has a sturdy build reminiscent of a cozy ottoman. His vocalizations often echo sentiments of nostalgia, as he seems to have plenty of stories to share. For years, Brucey played the role of a feral cat, vocalizing but avoiding any petting until one day he melted upon receiving his first head scratches indoors. At about 12 years old, Brucey is neutered, vaccinated, and has lived free of fleas and parasites. Although he is FIV positive, he requires no more care than any other senior cat – just a healthy diet and yearly vet check-ups. His lack of teeth makes him a safe companion for other cats, which he currently enjoys. Brucey thrives in the company of other mellow cats and would love a home with a feline friend.
