Bernie's Story
Bernie is a sweet, bouncy little guy with a very dog-like personality. Active and acrobatic, Bernie would need a home that can provide him with enrichment to keep him happily occupied. He would likely do well with children of all ages based on his demeanor, but he can get a little spooked by quick movements and loud noises, so he may need time to get fully comfortable if the home has really young kids.<br/><br/>He'll happily greet you at the door with excited meows and loves to play fetch. Bernie is energetic, curious, not picky with food, and keeps himself very clean. <br/><br/>When he slows down, he turns into a total softie and loves kneading, especially if you're wearing fleece.<br/><br/>------------------------------------<br/><br/>This cat has tested positive for Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV), which is specific to the felines and is not transmissible to dogs, humans, or any other animals. Cats with FeLV can live normal, happy, healthy lives-but it weakens the immune system, causing a shorter life expectancy than cats without FeLV. At PAWS, we believe every pet deserves to live out their life in a loving home for whatever time they have. We hope you'll consider opening your home to this special kitty! FeLV can spread to other cats, so they should live in a cat-free home or with other FeLV+ cats. Our staff will be happy to tell you more about FeLV, and you can learn more about FeLV here: phillypaws.org/felv<br/><br/>FeLV+ adopters are also eligible for an Amazon gift card after adoption and this cat's adoption fee is waived.<br/><br/>------------------------------------<br/><br/>This cat is currently located in a PAWS foster home. Please email their foster parent at yuetongjiang9@gmail.com to learn more about them! In order to meet with any cats in foster care, you will need to have a fully processed and approved application first. To get the adoption process started, please submit an adoption application online at phillypaws.org/catapp. <br/><br/>If you have any questions for our adoption team, feel free to email adoptions@phillypaws.org or call 215-238-9901 ext.30.
