Male Cat, Domestic Short Hair
Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (Short Coat)
Description:
How to sum up Bernie... in a few words, a total Ladies Man! As a strapping older gentleman with lots of white fur and light green eyes, Bernie is the talk of the town! And quite the talker he is! Bernie loves to chirp, meow, and purr all the time; and with his brown and black tabby coat, he draws eyes from all across the room. At almost 9 years old, Bernie is a bit rough around the edges (his face and ears have some scars) but we think it simply adds to his intrugue ! Bernie had a hard life on the streets, battling against other males for food and territory that unfortunately left a lasting impression (actually several) that means he tends to not like male cats. Bernie would prefer a home with a lovely female kitty or solo. He is very tolerant of high energy kittens and has his own playful side, as long as he can nap on a couch afterwards and be sassy about it He also has FIV, meaning he needs a little extra attention to his health and diet. Speaking of diet, boy does Bernie LOVE TO EAT ! Bernie has stress induced Pica, a disorder that causes him to chew and eat things like electrical cords and hands when he is stressed out. And being an older man, he has some joint pain (easily managed with a heated bed), so he kindly asks that all pets stick to his head and butt and a super sunny spot will make him the happiest boy!When Bernie isn't getting all the snuggles, he is following his foster parent around for attention. He loves acting as a foot warmer and playing with anything that moves (no string toys though, since he likes to eat them) before curling up on top of his human for a nap . He already has a favorite spot on the couch where he happily dozes the day away. And while Bernie may need a little extra care than most, this true gentleman loves making you feel like the most special person in the world. From head butts to purring to sweet little kisses, Bernie is truely a lover, not a fighter.
