BERT
A totally beautiful, cheerful, all-gray youngster, Bert is a lovable goofball. Call his name and not only does he come, he tells you he's arrived with a quiet "Ow" and an inquisitive tilt of his head.
He chatters happily at birds he sees out the window, and is excited to share that experience with you, pressing his face against yours, expecting you to chatter along with him.
A purr-machine without a stop button, Bert loves to cuddle and share everything but his food, which he still thinks will go away if he takes his head out of his bowl.
Bert has a slight neurological quirk - possibly caused by a trauma to his head - that keeps his left eye from closing. Blink at Bert, and he winks back with one eye! All Bert needs is a drop or two of drugstore "artificial tears" a day to make him right. You will never meet a cat who is so easy medicate - he seems to think you are picking him up to hug him, so he just purrs then runs off to play!
Bert is one of our favorites, looking for a home bursting with the same love and optimism he has.
