My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hi there… I’m Burt. I’m a 7-month-old boy with a gentle heart and a soft, sensitive spirit. I came to the shelter as a stray, so the world can still feel a little big and scary to me at times. I can be nervous and shy when we first meet, but if you move slowly and speak kindly, I’ll let you pet me—and before you know it, I may even start to relax. You might notice my eyes look a little different. I have chronic corneal scarring, but don’t worry—it doesn’t need treatment right now and doesn’t slow me down or stop me from being me. It’s simply part of my story. I’m hoping for a quiet, calm home where I can settle in at my own pace and learn that I’m safe. Loud noises and lots of chaos aren’t really my thing, but patience, gentle hands, and a cozy place to nap? That sounds perfect. And here’s a little secret to winning my heart: neck scratches and gentle massages are the fastest way to earn my love. Once I trust you, those soft touches help me melt and show my sweet side. If you’re looking for a sensitive, loving boy who just needs a little understanding and kindness, I might be your Burt.
