More about Bruce

Bruce the Bear Cub is a 4-year-old handsome chonky boi looking for a patient, loving home where he can fully commit to the snuggle life.Bruce has a big round face, large paws, a long body and very sweet eyes. Weighing in at a healthy, strapping 14 pounds, word has it the Vikings are after him to join the defensive line next year! This guy is quite the cuddler; he enjoys lap time for an hour or two a day and is very happy being near his humans as he lounges in a cozy bed or on the cat tree. He also likes his window time, watching squirrels and other wildlife as they go about their business. When playful, he is a catnip connoisseur, and wand toys are also highly valued. Bruce is fairly quiet, meowing only if he is lonely and seeks your company, or if you are late feeding him a meal; otherwise, he is a pretty chill lounger, happy to be around you.This guy uses the litterbox consistently and is very good about using the cat scratchers to sharpen his claws.Bruce would be happy as a solo cat, provided his people are around frequently, or with another mellow, confident cat that would be tolerant of Bruce's awkward attempts at play. His previous humans needed to rehome him due to a family member's allergies, and in that home, he coexisted with another large cat although they did not interact very much. At his foster home, Bruce is interested in playing with a cat from the other side of the door (exchanging paw taps under the door) and is starting to have some limited face-to-face interactions. It would likely be possible to do the same at his forever home with a slow and patient introduction.Bruce is a mellow, sweet cat but would do best with a cat-savvy forever family experienced in reading cat body language, as he is a good communicator when he needs his personal space. This handsome lover boy will thrive in a home with cat-savvy children 14 and older and with no canine friends.Could Bruce the Bear cub be the right fit for you? He is ready to settle into a forever home and use his soulful expressions to shower you with love and affection.- - - - - - - - - - - - -There is no guarantee of age and breed as a rescue animal's history is unknown.
