About Bear

All About Me and My Unique Personality: Meet Bear, a gorgeous big boy who is just wanting to be loved! He's a little shy to begin with, but once you give him pats, he melts into them, purring contentedly. Bear is quite happy to sleep most of the day away, but would love a little play too. My Ideal Home: Bear would suit a slightly quieter home. He coexists with other cats in his foster home, but wasn't keen on having dogs around. As with all Hunter Animal Rescue cats, he needs to be indoor only or in a secure cat enclosure. What is Known About My Background: Bear came into care from the pound. Now he's completed his vet work, he's ready to find his forever home. How Do I Interact with Kids, Dogs, Cats and Other Pets: Bear coexists with other cats in his foster home, so should be fine with cat friendly cats. He wasn't keen on the big dog he met in foster care. Bear would be suited to older children as he can get frightened easily and so would prefer a quieter home.
