Meet Bruiser – From Shy to Sweet, Ready for His Forever Home!

Bruiser’s journey is nothing short of incredible. This handsome, gentle soul has come so far since he first appeared in the backyard at our adoption lounge last year. When he first showed up, Bruiser was understandably fearful of humans and didn’t trust us at all. He started visiting us daily for food, but we soon realized he was sick, battling a severe upper respiratory infection and in need of neutering and a dental surgery.

Thanks to his favorite treat – a tuna-flavored Churu – we were able to get Bruiser inside just before the cold weather hit. While in our care, Bruiser underwent neutering, vaccinations, microchipping, and extensive dental surgery to get him back to health. Upon recovering, Bruiser still wasn’t quite ready to embrace indoor life, so we made the difficult decision to return him to the safety of his outdoor space where he had his own cozy spots and plenty of food.

But here's the amazing part – since this past spring, Bruiser has blossomed! What started as him scampering away at the sight of humans has turned into him seeking out attention and affection from everyone he meets. Bruiser began spending his days lounging in the yard, and then, we were able to transition him to a foster home.

At his foster home, Bruiser has truly flourished! He loves lounging on the bed and couch, especially on his heated blanket. He wants pets and attention and he enjoys spending time with a feline friend!

Bruiser is FIV/FeLV negative, neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and in great health after his surgery. He’s ready to find a family that will love him forever.
