About Bertie

Meet Bertie, a resilient little lady who has faced some tough times. She showed up at a porch, in need of care and attention, and has come a long way since then. While she's bounced back from her struggles with dehydration and poor nutrition, she’s still dealing with gingivitis and is on a specific treatment plan to help her feel her best. Bertie is around 6 years old but seems even wiser than that. She would thrive in a calm and quiet adult home where she can receive the love and care she deserves. It’s best for her to be the only cat in the household; she just prefers it that way. Bertie has been fully vetted and comes with a lifetime microchip for her safety. For this sweet and curious girl, finding a loving forever home is a must. Could you be the one? What are you waiting for? Apply today!
