About Bernie
Bernie is a sweet, extremely affectionate little girl but also very, very timid until she gets to know you and feels safe.
She will need a safe room like a study or bedroom where she can hide but also where you can spend time with her. Affection is the key to winning her heart and her trust. Even whilst hiding under a cupboard or shelf, she will embrace pats and scratches and purr loudly and eventually will start to come out of hiding and seek your attention. Once feeling more comfortable, she will reward you with head bops, big kisses and curling up in your lap but also seems to like being up high. She’s also a big help with the computer 😊
Bernie really is incredibly affectionate and, as such, would be best with someone who is home a lot or has a cat-friendly cat she can bond to as she loves other cats and will seek them out.
After a few days or a week she will gradually start to explore the rest of the house, but is best doing that with you by her side so she feels safe. Lots of pats and verbal encouragement will help her immensely.
Due to her timidity, Bernie would suit a quiet home with no young children as they would be too scary for her. Older, cat-savvy children would be fine, so long as they understand she needs time and patience to feel completely at home and safe.
Do you have it in your heart to offer Bernie the loving home she so desperately wants, and the patience she needs to become part of the family?
