About Bernie

Meet Bernie! This charming 5-year-old domestic longhair cat has a gentle demeanor, although he can be a bit shy. According to his previous owner, Bernie tends to be nervous around newcomers and may take some time to warm up. But once he feels secure, he's affectionate and loving. Bernie has shared his space with other cats and kittens before, getting along well with them. Although he hasn’t interacted with dogs, it’s a detail to keep in mind if you're considering a home with pets of all kinds. He has his own adorable quirks; Bernie enjoys playing fetch with his favorite mouse toy and has an amusing habit of splashing around in water with his paws. Recently arrived at Rebel, he’s still adjusting to his new surroundings. A patient family would be ideal for him as he settles in and reveals his true personality. Could Bernie be your new best friend?
