Hello! My name is Bear and I am about 9 months old. My mom (Bean) and I were surrendered to the Adams County SPCA, our owner could no longer care for us so they wanted us to have the best chance of finding a new loving home. I love to play with feathers and other toys. I have long hair so I will need someone to brush me at least once a week. Don't worry, I like being brushed, as long as you are gentle.
We can learn new things together. Whether it's chasing a feather toy or batting around a crinkly ball, I'm always up for a bit of fun. And hey, if you're looking for a buddy to help with your daily yoga routine, I'm an expert at downward cat!
